Mission Night Patrol 10/16/10

Saturday October 16th 2010, will be a night patrol in the Mission Dist. This is a patrol with angels from other chapters, along with the San Francisco Guardian Angels. We all meet at the HQ for this patrol, this will not be a major patrol, this will be a patrol we had got a call on about some drug dealing at the 16th street Bart Station. Our major event will be the following day in Oakland, and that event has already been planed out. As we prepare for this night patrol, we did our prebrief, all angels are in uniform, all angels are ready to hit the streets. There will be one team tonight for this patrol, J.D. will lead the team, we will use all radios for communication.




Next we march to the bus stop, we get on bus #14, we get to our stop 16th street Bart Station. As we post up at the station, it is calm now and there is not much activity, not much that we could do here at this moment. But we know that there are other hot spots that we can check out, then we can come back to see if these drug dealers are at this station.



We then march to the alleys, Hunter's Alley, Lover's Lane Alley and Travis Alley, we did pick up dirty needles, these alleys are clean. We then march back to the 16th street Bart Station, and there they are, about 10 gang bangers, dealing there Crack Cocaine. We did see one drug deal, but it was to fast.



Next we post up right next to them, then someone else comes up to buy drugs, we saw this and we jump right on it, we ask them if they wanted to go to jail, we asked them to leave, we asked them to back off.





They wanted to fight, they took off there jackets, they called us every name in the book, they said they wasn't going to leave. We did have to use alittle force to back them away, but we where not going to back down. They did leave, and it did calm down, for a short moment, they then came back with more guys, but there was No more drug deals that we could see. We stayed post up as long as it takes, until they findly gave up an left, this corner is now at peace. We then called it a night, we got back on the bus #14, we got to the HQ, we did debrief.
Thank You LA Chapter's for your HELP!

Mission Night Patrol 9/17/10

Friday September 17th 2010, we the San Francisco Guardian Angels will be doing a night patrol in the Mission Dist. tonight. We do have guest from other chapter's,Tiger from the Stockton Chapter, Explorer from the LA Chapter, Senior Leader Greencard from the San Jose Chapter, and Director Of California Confront from the San Diego Chapter. This is a night patrol and a night patrol in this area is very dangerous, so we need to be focus and alert for this patrol. All the angels arrived at the HQ on time, all the angels change into there uniforms, and now we are ready for prebrief.The patrol is set, there will be two teams tonight; The first team will be lead by Scorpion, he has one first aid tech on his team, this is a large team of 12 angels. The second team will be lead by Greencard, we are the back up team, this is a small team of 5 angels. The reason being for this smaller team is so we could maneuver faster, and get to the larger team faster, there are other reasons for this but we cannot tell these procedures.






Next we pass out all the radio's for communication, we choose partners, we call the Mission Police Dept. to advise our patrol, now we are ready to hit the streets. Next we march to the bus stop, we get on bus #14, we get to our bus stop 16th street BART STATION, we post up on both corner's of BART. Same old story, the bad guys see us they run that way and they this way, but they leave and it calms down. But we just don't leave that fast, the second team stays posted up at the BART STATION while the first team checks the alleys. First team then arrives back to the BART STATION to the second team to advise us, they pick up dirty needles and that the alley is all clear.



We march on, up Mission St. we post up on a few corners, they are calm, we check out our park, it is locked, so we march on. Next we get to our rest stop WALGREEN'S, bathroom break, smoke break, and water break. If we did not do this or if we did not have this Resource, we could not stay out as long as we could.





But it helps us a great deal, we did have people stop to ask questions about us, and we take time to take some photo's, and we did have enough time talk about our berets because of our different styles, but we have to get back on patrol.





Next we march to 24th street BART STATION, we get there, we post up on both corner's of BART, we did come up on this man that was stone drunk with his credit card sticking out of his pocket, and he had his NIKE shoes off of his feet. So we did wake the man up and explained to him in Spanish that he needed to go home and to get off the streets, he did.



This area was all clear and we could tell how calm it was, so Scorpion puts the teams on bus #14 for a small bus patrol, this too was all clear. Scorpion then decides to call it a night and to head back to the HQ, as we are already on the bus it wasn't before long that we where back to the HQ. All the angels know what we do next before we leave, we go right into debrief, it is a good debrief, it is a debrief that is never the same, but debriefing helps us to become better. We then put the radio's back into there chargers, change back into our street clothes, and remind everyone what we must do tomorrow.

Mission night patrol, 4/30/10

Friday April 30th 2010, we the San Francisco Guardian Angels are doing something that we have never done before. This will be a night patrol in the Mission Dist. This patrol will be done by the New Generation lead by Scorpion (team one). The older angels will be back up, lead by Lion (team two). This patrol is under the watchful eyes of Greencard and J.D. The whole chapter is very excited about doing this, this has been in our plans for a long time. The New Generation are young angels in their teens, from 16yrs old to18yrs old, and their code names speaks for themselves, like:

1. Scorpion, 2nd In Command
2. Apache, Sergeant
3. NEMO, Corporal
4. Matador
5. Sonic
6. Puma
7. Robo Cop
8. Breaker
9. Maverick


The youth will help keep the Guardian Angels alive in generations to come, the youth will help keep our history passed on to their younger generations. They are our future leaders!





Now back to tonight's patrol, everyone has arrived at the HQ, everyone has changed into there uniforms, everyone is ready for prebrief. The patrol is set, we will be using all radios for communication, we have one first aid tech for both teams, now we are ready to hit the streets. We begin by posting up outside the HQ, we then march to the bus stop, we get on bus #14, we get to our bus stop, 16th street BART STATION.

Scorpion decides to take the teams on the same tour as we do in this area. First we hit Hunters Alley, we picked up a needle or two, it is all clear. Next we hit Lovers Lane Alley, in this alley there is a John and a prostitute, but Scorpion and his team had them leave the alley, they left and now the alley is all clear. Scorpion then takes the teams up Mission St. we post up on a few corners, they are all clear.

Scorpions team did hit Alioto Park while Lions team stayed post up on Mission St, Scorpions team arrives back to Mission St. advising team two that the park is all clear. Next we get to 24th street BART STATION, we post up here for awhile, the corner is all clear. Next Scorpions team will hit Travis Alley while Lions team
stayed posted at 24th street BART STATION. Scorpions team arrives back to the BART STATION, advising team two that the alley is all clear.



Scorpion knows it is getting late, he makes the call and calls it a night. The 24th street BART STATION is our bus stop so we stay posted up to wait for bus #14, we get on the bus #14, and this bus #14 is crazy, Partiers, Drinkers, and Juveniles. We thought it would calmed down as we were on the bus, but it did not, we where not going to let this get out of hand. We did observe one male with an open beer in his jacket, we asked for it, he was mad but he gave it up by asking him to get off the bus. When he got off the bus everyone of those Partiers, Drinkers, Juveniles got off the bus, now this bus is safe and everyone on the bus was thankful. We got to our stop, we get to the HQ, we change back into our street clothes, we do debrief, and we did all come back safe. There will be a Video on You-Tube of this patrol, so please give comments on this patrol.

Thank You To The New Generation!

Saturday, 4/24/10 Mission Patrol

Saturday April 24th 2010, we the San Francisco Guardian Angels will have a full schedule today, we have a self defense class, and a split patrol of two teams. One team will do an event at Union Square, and the other team will do a patrol in the Mission Dist. All the angels start arriving at the HQ around 3:00pm to change into their uniforms, and to begin the self defense training. Our instructor is one of our own members in the chapter, code name Warrior. This training was on Pressure Points on your body, and believe me every angel did feel the pain from those pressure points, and we were shown how to do take downs by using them.



We as Guardian Angels do try to receive as much training as we can, in Self Defense, First Aid, CPR, and Handcuffs. This helps the angels to be better trained for the streets against the bad guys, and to be better prepared when we need to save someone's life. After the training we begin with prebrief for our up and coming events, and we do have a few for the month of May. Next we move on to who will be leading the teams to these areas, Greencard will lead the team for Union Square event, and Scorpion will lead the team for Mission Dist. We will use all radios for communication, we do have two first aid techs one for each team, and now we are ready to hit the streets. The plan for both teams is to march to Union Square to see how big this event is and if both teams need to stay there or not. We get there, we post up, we decided that one team could handle this event, Greencard's team will be the one to stay at this event with two radios and one fist aid tech. As for Scorpion's team he will have the other two radios with the other first aid tech to march to the bus stop, and to ride the bus to Mission Dist. for a patrol of that area.




This is time consuming but we try to do our best with what time we have left in the day. Scorpion's team gets to the bus stop, we get on bus #14, we get to our stop 16th street BART STATION, we post up for a while, it is calm, all clear. Greencard radio's Scorpion to advise him that his event is a code four, Scorpion advises Greencard the same code, code four. Scorpion then marches the team up Mission St. all the way to Alioto Park, we check it out, it is all clear. Greencard radio's Scorpion again to advise him that they had just took two small bags of weed off of some bad guys and that they had went to jail, but now it is code four, Greencard out.



As for Scorpion's team we then marched to 24th street BART STATION, we post up for awhile, it to was all clear.


Now we where thinking this is going to be one of those nights until we get to Travis Alley, man you talk about a pipe, a really big pot pipe, this was a major find, someone stashed it in the alley to not have it in their home, but it is not there any more.

So all in all, Scorpion's team did a good job in the Mission Dist. Greencard's team did a good job at the event. We then next radio each other to call it a night, and that we would meet each other at the HQ.

We all got back to the HQ, we change back to our street clothes, we did debrief. As this chapter grows and grows, we can do more things, we can go to more places, we can help more people. But this takes money, we do need your donations, so please donate to the San Francisco Guardian Angels!

We would like to Thank! these chapters for being a part of this day.

Mission night patrol, 4/17/10

Saturday April 17th 2010, we the San Francisco Angels will be doing a night patrol in the Mission Dist tonight. We will have two photographers with us on this tour, Grant and Sasha, and we will make sure they will be protected on this tour. All the angels start arriving at the HQ around 3:00pm to get ready for patrol, we change into uniform and we do our debrief. J.D. and Greencard did put everything on the table for the chapters; up and coming events, the La Carnival and the World Convention, we will be ready for them both. Now back to the patrol, Lion will lead team one, Electra will lead team two, we do have two first aid techs one for each team, we will be using all radios for communication on this patrol. This will be a regular routine tour of this area, everyone is advised, we have also called the Mission Police Dept. to check in, we are good to go. Next we march to the bus stop to catch bus #14, we ride the bus to our bus stop 16th street BART STATION.





We all know what to do once we are off the bus, we post up at this corner, it is all clear. We march on to the alley-ways, Hunters Alley and Lovers Lane Alley, as always we pick up all the dirty needles, we see the addicts run out of the alleys, now the alleys are all clear. We check on Kid Power Park, it is a very observed park, and it is a locked park during the night, it is all clear. Next we march back to 16th street BART STATION, one team on each corner station across the street from each other.

As for team one, Lion's team, we are faced with a drunk female that is out of control, two drunk males that are about to get into a fight. So we handle the two drunk males first, we make sure that they where separated apart to calm them down, and they did calm down. We did ask them to leave the area to go there separate ways and they did, one gets on the bus, the other waits for a minute then he hops on that same bus, at least they where calm down and they left the area.

As for the drunk female she was yelling and waving, but the next thing you know she was trying to grab the camera out of one of the photographer hands. But as we did advised, this photographer was protected by one of our angels, this angel did a very good reaction to this drunk female that kept her from getting this camera, great job Warrior. As for team two they are our back up for team one if we need them, they are in view and in radio contact for this patrol. Next we march on, we march up from 16th street BART STATION to 22nd street to check on Alioto Park, it is all clear.

Next we march to 24th street BART STATION, we post up, it to is all clear. Next we march down 24th street to Potrero St. we post up a few times, we did observe a suspicious vehicle going in circles around the block but nothing happened, this area is all clear. Now we get to march back to 24th street BART STATION from Potrero St. but before we get there team two checks out Travis Alley, it is all clear.



We do get to 24th street BART STATION, we do post up again at this corner, it is all clear. What can we say this was a quite night, and all we could do next was to march back down to16th street BART STATION. But before we get there we decided to check on Alioto Park again, this time we walk in on a couple, a male and a female making out and drinking, we advised them to leave the area and that this park is off limits at night, they left, it is now all clear. We got to16th street BART STATION, we posted up on both corners again, it is all clear again.



Lion advises the team to call it a night, we get on bus #14, we get to the HQ, we debrief, we change back into our street clothes. There was one thing that was said in debrief, that this was a boring patrol, the answer to that was, We All Came Back SAFE!

Bus patrol, Friday 4/1610

Friday April 16th 2010, we the San Francisco Guardian Angels will be doing a bus patrol on a Friday Night. This is a added patrol for this weekend to see what bad guys do on bus #14. This is going to tell us what it is like on a Friday night when everyone starts their partying on bus #14. This is going to explain how all the graffiti gets tagged on the bus #14. And this is going to show us how many people do sneak in the back door without paying on bus #14. Only hand picked angels has showed up at the HQ who is going to do this patrol tonight, we march to the bus stop, we post up to wait for the bus. Next we get on bus #14, we go to our post on the bus, to watch the doors and to observe the entire bus. Tonight of all nights we the angels had prevented drunks, freeloaders, taggers, and these young juveniles from
destroying the bus on this night.



But still it was costly, there were glass doors busted, there were glass windows busted, the bus was hit, the bus was kicked. As for this bus this does happen, but we knew everyone had to be safe, and we where going to make sure it was safe as possible on this bus.




Everyone on the bus where very glad to see the angels tonight, even the bus driver kept announcing the angels are on the bus. This was a bus patrol, a bus patrol that we needed to do as angels. This patrol will be scheduled in as we begin to change out
our patrols, but we my need to give up a Saturday or two if needed. We call it a night, but this was not a long night because we will be coming back again tomorrow for another patrol. We get back to the HQ, we do a small debrief, we change back into our street clothes, and we did came back SAFE! Great job angels.
