Bio
Marc Shakespeare
Dave is a platoon commander on a very diverse and busy operational flying unit. I have worked closely with Dave since March 2011, his extensive experience enables him to deal with all that is thrown at him. This was proven during the 2012 Olympics, he was responsible for the planning, implementing, and execution of a massive security operation lasting for nearly 7 months involving numerous agencies both civilian and military. He is an extremely effective manager and this can be seen through his troops who hold him in high regard. He is respected by all on station and his knowledge of security and management come across faultlessly when in high level security meetings. Dave has a huge wealth of experience to draw from and nothing distracts him from the task in hand and will ensure whatever is required of him or his troops is carried out to the highest level of professionalism. He will enhance the capability and effectiveness of anything he decides to do, utilising all that is available to him. He will undoubtedly be an asset to those who employ him.
