On Tuesday November 2nd, West Wendover Police Lieutenant Bradlee Hillaker received his 20 Year Service Award by City Manager Chris Melville.
Lt. Hillaker began his career in law enforcement in 2001 with the City of West Wendover and worked his way up through the ranks. In 2008 he was promoted to Police Sergeant. In 2015 he received a promotion to Detective Sergeant and in 2019 he was promoted to the position he holds today, Police Lieutenant.
"It is a sincere pleasure to provide Lt. Hillaker with his 20 year service award. He has a bit more gray hair then I remember him having in 2001 but he is definitely more polished and wiser for it. I hope he can continue to serve the public long into the future as he is a fine example of one of our great public servants; keeping our community safe and secure."
In addition to his plaque, Lt. Hillaker received a service pin which is designed with the City Seal. The pins reflect the employee's service with a star for every five years they serve. And, as well, Lt. Hillaker received a $25 Smith's Food Store Gift Card.
Congratulations Brad, job well done!
