This Thursday, Gil slept in until 4:02 AM, triggering immediate concern. By 4:03, we had SWAT conducting a full-scale wellness check.
Thankfully, Gil was alive, well, and absolutely furious about the accusation.
After an extensive investigation, it was determined that his WHOOP was undergoing a firmware update and Gil had, in fact, been awake before 4:00 AM.
His reputation has been restored. The officers have been released. WHOOP will be hearing from his attorneys.š¤£
In reality, earlier this week, BRX Development had the opportunity to put one of our Hanover teardown properties to work one final timeābefore the excavators arrive.
We turned the property over to the Central New Hampshire Special Operations Unit, a regional SWAT team serving more than 20 municipalities from Concord to Lincoln, for real-world tactical training.
Instead of training in a controlled facility, these first responders were able to work inside an actual building scheduled for demolitionāgiving them the freedom to conduct realistic entry, search, breaching, and tactical exercises in an environment that closely mirrors the situations they may encounter in the field.
For us, it was a building headed for demolition. For them, it was an opportunity to train, sharpen their skills, and better prepare for the moment when those skills may save a life.
We were proud to give the property one last purposeāand even prouder to support the men and women who stand ready to respond when our communities need them most.
Not every BRX Development project starts with a groundbreaking. Sometimes it starts with a SWAT team.
