BOB GANO, Owner and CEO
Bob Gano graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania (1986), earning a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. For 25 years, Bob was employed by the Pennsylvania State Police, serving as a Patrol Trooper, Criminal Investigator, Fire Marshal, Alternate Forensic Services Officer, Criminal Investigation and Patrol Supervisor, and Station Commander at the Gettysburg Barracks in Adams County from 2007 – 2010.
As a result of his impressive years of service with the State of Pennsylvania, Bob has extensive experience in all facets of Criminal Investigation, including cold case investigations that resulted in the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the crime of criminal homicide. Given that Bob has served in Adams, Cumberland, York, Franklin, and Dauphin counties, he has a working relationship with the District Attorney’s Offices in each of these counties. In 2008, Bob attended the Leadership in Police Organizations, modeled after the training concept of dispersed leadership (“every officer a leader”).
Bob also has extensive experience with employee background investigations and internal inspection of policies and procedures. Bob has been a leader in ACT 67 Compliance and School Safety with his attendance and completion of multiple levels of NASRO Training (Basic SRO, Advanced SRO, Adolescent Mental Health Training, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, and Supervision of an Effective SRO Program). He also participated in the National School Safety Summit in Baltimore, MD (December 2018). Bob is also certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education to conduct risk assessments of school buildings and facilities.
CRAIG WALKER, Vice President of Unarmed Event Security
In 2018, Craig Walker joined G-Force Security Solutions after a 30-year career in the education sector. During his educational tenure, Craig served 17 years as an Athletic Administrator for three different school districts in Carroll County, Maryland. He was named the Maryland State Athletic Directors Association Athletic Director of the Year on multiple occasions.
Initially, Craig was a part-time member of our athletic event security team upon his retirement from education. However, with his expertise and knowledge of the "behind-the-scenes" planning for athletic events, Craig was an obvious choice for G-Force's expansion and growth of our athletic event security in recent years. Craig works very closely with several local school district athletic directors to review their security needs for athletic events in an effort to keep student-athletes, coaches, officials, families, and fans safe.
During the last few years, Craig's role at G-Force Security Solutions has expanded beyond local athletic events. Currently, he oversees our Unarmed Security Division which provides trained security guards for a variety of businesses, community events, athletic events, etc.
