Beyond the Uniform: Ryan Mcleod: Upholding Justice, the Naked Truth
The National Park Service turns 100 in August.

Today, meet Ryan Mcleod, Law Enforcement Specialist and Park Ranger at Independence National Historic Park.
He says his job is very similar to that of a police chief, but he patrols a much smaller area confined to the National Park. While he takes his job very seriously, sometimes the day presents some lighter moments.
