Membership Spotlight

A Tribute to a Top Cop

In 1973 I arrived in Hawaii for a second tour of duty with the Military Police Brigade and it was at that time that I had the honor and privilege to serve with Rudd H. "Biff" Johnson, who was a Lt. Colonel and the Provost Marshal for the 25th Infantry Division and Schofield Barracks. Through the years we had professional relationships and in retirement we both had parallel careers as civilian members of the Military Police Regiment. It was with great sadness and a sense of personal loss that I learned that Biff passed away Friday evening, December 10th.

In 1998 Biff was recognized as the United States Army Pacific "Top Cop" Award. For the benefit of his many friends I am going to reproduce in the past tense the article that so aptly described his services to the Army and the country.

"...Mr. Biff Johnson was a consummate professional who dedicated over 42 years to the law enforcement field. His last position as Chief of Staff for the Military Police Brigade - Hawaii, included serving as the primary coordinating staff member and advisor to the United States Army Pacific Provost Marshal. He was responsible for implementing and enforcing all policies and procedures pertaining to law enforcement, physical security of arms, ammunition, and explosives; and responsible for physical security of Army property at unit and installation level. Further he was instrumental in ensuring the proper implementation of the Army Corrections and Military Working Dog Programs. He conducted crime analysis to inform senior commanders within the command of crime trends, as well as to develop plans to reduce or prevent criminal activities.

Mr. Johnson was a strong advocate for community policing. He was responsible for rejuvenating the Police Eyes and Ears Program throughout the Army community of Oahu. This program has been a major contributing factor to preventing criminal activity due to community involvement, as well as to enhancing community relations between the military police and the community they serve. This program was recognized by the U.S. Army Chief of Staff community of excellence team as an item of great interest to the entire Army. Mr. Johnson's initiatives and efforts resulted in a steady decrease in property and personal crime with the Army military community.

His wife Lorraine is assigned to Tripler Army Medical Center as the Healthcare Administrator for the Department of OB/GYN.

The condolences of the Hawaii Joint Police Association are extended to her and the Johnson family.

Sincerely,

Donald E. Devaney - President, HJPA
