Logen - Future K91677 views Last year, on September 7th, 2011, the first grant of the NFL season was awarded to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, in Rockville, Maryland.
The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office used the grant to purchase four “K9 Storm†bullet proof vests, to help protect the department’s four highly specialized canine teams.
All members of the Sheriff’s Office K9 Unit are trained as dual purpose K9s for the detection of explosives as well as patrol functions. The grant added another level of safety for the canines while they handle their duties both in and around the Montgomery County area, protecting the lives and property of the citizens of Maryland and surrounding states.
Sheriff Darren M. Popkin said at the time that “the grant funds will provide our dogs with vests that protect them from attacks with firearms and knifes while engaged in their duties.â€
A year later, the Sheriff’s Office sent an email to thank Ben once again for the grant:
“The Montgomery County (MD) Sheriffs Office wanted to again thank Ben Roethlisberger and bigben7.com for the support you have shown our office in the past. Last year we were able to purchase ballistic vests for all of our K9s because of your support.†– Deputy Sheriff James Johnson, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
The department also sent photos and a story about “Logenâ€, their K9-to-be (he’s got a little growin’ up to do first!)!
Little Logen, a pure bred German Shepherd Pup, was born on April 23, 2012. His father “Leon†is a working Police dog in Maryland ,and his mother “Echo†has bred other puppies that have become successful Police and Search and Rescue dogs.
Once he is trained, Logen will be wearing a “K9 Storm†bullet proof vest and will be able to track humans and locate evidence….but first he has to get big enough to jump into the back of a police vehicle unassisted!
*Thank you to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and Deputy Sheriff James Johnson!

December 18, 2007 - The Hines Ward Show1671 viewsFrom the article in KDKA: There was a special guest at Tuesday's taping of the PNC Hines Ward Show.
But we aren't just talking about Ben Roethlisberger.
It was one of Big Ben's biggest fans: an 8 year old boy with a devastating illness who met his idol.
But Roethlisberger says the inspiration goes both ways.
To say it was an opportunity of a lifetime is an understatement for Joseph DeBacco, who was only given a 10 to 15 percent chance to live, when he found out he would be meeting his idol Ben.
"I want to have him sign my jersey and I feel awesome," said 8 year-old cancer patient Joseph DeBacco.
Joseph was all smiles anticipating his face-to-face meeting with Ben.
Ben says kids like Joseph are his inspiration as well.
"You sit there and think about how sore am I today and complain about practice," said Roethlisberger. "He's a hero to me."
