Welcome,

I’m a 64-year-old father who spent 4 years in the Marine Corps, then went on to a successful career in law enforcement. I retired from the Miami Beach Police Department after 25 years of service. I’ve had good luck being able to travel to a few countries.

In this blog, some of the posts will be on police issues and family safety. On the police-related posts, I will do my best not to create a post that reflects my opinion only. To say that my approach to policing is a bit “Old School” is an understatement. The badge in my family goes back three generations. If a post helps someone, then it’s all been worth it.

Thank you for stopping by,

John Corley

The blog name “See The Man” came from one of my favorite television shows as a child.

ADAM 12

TV Series 1968 to 1975

Special thanks goes out to;


Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

The solidity of our soul is not formed in the vastness of the arena, it’s formed in a space that often has room for only one.
