Bruce Stark

Capt. Bruce Stark joins the CCG Active Shooter Division as a Master Instructor with incredible experience in Emergency Services, Fire Rescue, and Tactical Medical services.  Having served with the FDNY on 9-11, Bruce’s knowledge, training, and certifications (while vast) pales in comparison to actual life experience.  Currently serving as a Captain in one of the Nations leading fire departments in Northern Virginia, his operational experience grows each and every day.

Whether in the classroom or on-scene Bruce brings humor, humility, and credible skills to each and every course he leads or is a part of.  As one of the most highly certified and credentialed instructors in the country, each and every student of his courses stand to learn a great deal.

We are very excited to have him on our training team and look forward to offering even more courses that take advantage of his depth of knowledge and experience, some of which is noted below.
