KDFWR Officer Wayne Wilson promoted Article courtesy Daniel Wilson Long time Lake Cumberland Conservation Officer Wayne Wilson has achieved the rank of Sergeant with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife. Now, Sergeant Wilson will oversee four officers and his new service area consists of administrative duties in Cumberland, Monroe, Metcalfe, Adair, Taylor, Green, Marion and Washington Counties. With the move up, Wilson's added responsibilities include making sure that his units have proper equipment and respond to scenes of accidents or other high profile cases. The Officers under his command will also assist in work details and year end evaluation. Despite the position, Wilson says he will still remain active in enforcing the laws of the Commonwealth and he looks forward to the new challenges that lie ahead. Recently, the most prestigious roles for Wilson have been serving as a part of security details for both President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. His first day at the Academy on 9 11 was one Wilson will never forget. It was the same day of the September 11 attacks in 2001. Wilson has worked for KDFWR since 2006 when he became part of Class #377 at the KY Dept of Criminal Justice Training Center in Richmond, where he was named squad leader. Two weeks before he graduated, Wilson opened a Federal Case regarding the death of a bald eagle in the Lake Cumberland Area and was granted special permission to work alongside U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agents on the case. While receiving over 1600 hours of training thus far, Wilson has racked up many accomplishments during his career. He received a Life Saving Award Commendation for pulling an injured boater from Green River Lake in 2007 and testified in an illegal reptile and drug case in Federal Court in 2008. Wilson was named Conservation Officer of District 9 in 2009 and Boating Officer of the Year in 2017. He was also sworn in as a KDFWR Law Enforcement Division Chaplin in 2017. Wilson has been actively serving on the Department's Special Response Team. His SRT detail work included the Ice Storm relief effort in Western, Kentucky in 2009 and the same location there with the Flood relief effort in 2011. During the ice storm, he checked daily on an elderly man who would not evacuate. In the flood waters of 2011, Wilson drove his boat ten feet over the top of the home where the elderly man had previously resided. Wilson's new ranking and assignment to supervise four other Conservation Officers places him in eight counties to the West - North West of the Lake Cumberland Area.
