Security has been a big concern for President Obama and his family. Secret Service agents began shadowing the Obamas on the campaign trail. Dennis “Denny” Schlindwein knows what it takes to keep a Presidential family safe. Denny serviced seven different Presidents during his time with the Secret Service.
Denny was an English teacher when his neighbor mentioned that the agency was hiring. Since that time his work has taken him around the world, and into some tense situations. Denny shares with Dick Gordon his stories from a career protecting top political leaders.
