    Police Officer Julio Rivas receives an Army 40-year length-of-service awards on Jan. 16, 2026, from Fort McCoy Directorate of Emergency Services Director Micah Komp at Fort McCoy, Wis. Rivas first completed a distinguished 20-year career in field artillery with the U.S. Army. In 2005, he began a new chapter as a PCF escort at Fort Sill, Okla., where he first applied his military experience to a civilian role. But his drive to protect and serve led him to a new path. In 2008, he transitioned to become a Department of the Army security guard at Letterkenny Army Depot, Penn., and by 2011, he brought those skills back to Fort Sill. This dedication to security and law enforcement culminated in 2018, when he achieved a significant milestone, becoming an Army civilian police officer at Red River Army Depot. His journey as a police officer continued in 2020 when he transferred to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., further expanding his impact across the Army community. In 2023, Rivas joined the ranks of the Fort McCoy Police Department. (Courtesy photo)
