- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- Every police officer's career path is different, but Grant Keams' path started while he was just in high school when he was recruited into the U.S. Marine Corps. Transitioning to the police force for the Navajo Nation (where officers number approximately 1.9 for every 1,000 people) was easy for Grant. But let go of whatever picture you've developed in your mind of the type of person he is--because he's much more than that. Join us as we get to know Grant Keams and discover what it's like to be a police officer on the Navajo Nation.

I know Grant's mom. Very nice lady. We talk everytime I travel through Artesia. I am currently the "2nd gentleman" of the Navajo Nation. My wife is the Vice President Richelle Montoya.
The area is appreciative for Grant's service & he is a philosophical officer that I appreciate in his line of work. Wow, the 2nd gentleman, would you and your wife be interested in an interview? If so, please email us at info@spagoshi.com or contact us via social media. Ahe' hee 🤙🏾

The Navajo Nation should have shuttles for veterans to go to VA appts. My spouse is retired and when they tried to see what there is to offer they were disappointed. Specially with the veteran homes. Biggest complaint we always hear is they don’t build them for vets right away. Vets always get it when there really old and end up passing away never really getting to live in there homes. When it comes to the younger vets I think they should build a home for them. But Navajo nation sucks at helping. Well from the area we’re at. But the best thing we’ve did before they got out is buy a home. Just wish we could live on the Rez but it’s hard to find someone to build and we didn’t want to be living with our parents while trying to find something.
Ahe' hee for sharing your story. Please reach out to us via PM on social media or info@spagoshi.com
Your story is interesting & very similar to what has been happening to our family as well. We would love to meet your husband about his journey. Ahe' hee
I’m sorry, I don’t think they would want to be on RUclips. Lol we don’t really do social media. Kind of a private family.
@@RSVD84 I understand, I pulled myself off social media years ago for privacy, turns out in front face on camera, ha. Have a great day!
Haha, thanks for understanding. Take care.
Fantastic interviews 👍👍👍👍
Ahe' hee, much appreciated 🤙🏾
You should interview Steven Nelson, retired police captain working as a security guard at Crownpoint Indian Hospital.
If you have his contact info, please email us at info@spagoshi.com or message us on instagram or Facebook. Ahe' hee and much appreciated!

Native police should work better with local sheriff and pd. I'm glad they allow non natives to be cops. Help bring awareness to what goes on the reservation.
What are of the Navajo Nation do you reside or from? Ahe' hee for watching Grant's video! 🤙🏾
Interesting. 🌷
Yes ma'am it was. Ahe' hee for checking out Grant's video 🤙🏾

They are a mighty team with an impressive amount of talent that comes out of Artesia. It's definitely a gem in southern New Mexico. My first job as a superintendent was out in Artesia. Great people & they really welcomed me as a community member.
I worked in the oilfields and lived in Artesia. 2 daughters graduated from Artesia high. 2014, 2015.
@@olsenchee4082 Great to hear. Thanks for sharing and I had the pleasure to meet Ty & build for him & his organization.
Make sure he changes his smoke detector battery
Talk to me, I'm retired officer

USA. 🤔👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
I watched your video yesterday this vlog I think being in the military and being a Navajo Police officer don't go together because I'm saying that is lots of my friends went to military and lost their job being a Navajo Nation Police officer they took as a united states military where they got abused civilians I have seen it too no matter if that person is a everyday drinker that doesn't mean hit that person or kick person military soldiers are only good for to defend our country not Police officers I think this happened on the Navajo Reservation
A broad stroke / generalization over any profession doesn't give any of us enough information to decide if career overlaps is acceptable or not. Some individuals who give their industry a sour taste doesn't mean it's like that across the board.
As our stats in the video show in the video, majority of military vets don't always experience PTSD / TBI / MST and most who utilize that experience in other professions is usually positive.
Grant is a great example of someone who served their time and used the best part of the military and applied to the law enforcement sector.
We appreciate your insight and checking out Grant's video.
His next video will be out Sunday morning and dives more into philosophical look of being an officer and a community member.
Ahe' hee 🤙🏾
@@Spagoshi I have cousins they went to military some some are still in military their addicted to the military some are working in pentagon so this guy is into weapons why did he leave military that's where all types weapons are there for him learn cause Navajo Nation Police Department doesn't have high tech weapons like military
@@nealnez7729 You missed the point about the weapons part. He likes firearms, but didn't mention high tech weapons. His mos was admin & operations, which isn't focused on weaponry. He mentioned it as part of why he went into law enforcement and it applied to part of many skill sets he picked up in the military.
@@Spagoshi I understand that I have been criminal investigator that's how I know if this guy fascinated with weapons why did he quit from the marines I have family in the military
@@nealnez7729 Like he said in the video, we wanted to explore new areas and went to college for Law Enforcement since at the time NM State required a 4 year degree. How long were you a criminal investigator? Was it part of the Navajo Nation?
Cartal in. Region
B ro your in territory of.
Hoping you officers dont patrol around vicinity of holbrook very lazy officer especially the dispatcher
Sorry to hear that. Hope there is change in that area.
