CLINT WALKER, SECURITY STAFF MEMBER
Clint Walker, a member of the Cincinnati Bengals' security team since 2010, spent over 15 years as a member of the United States Army. Walker originally enlisted in the U.S. Army out of high school in 1976, and through 1992 he served in the Infantry Branch, in communications roles and in the U.S. Army Reserve. During that time, Walker was stationed in over seven locations around the globe, including Camp Casey (South Korea), the Garrison Ansbach military community (Germany), Fort Hunter Liggett and Fort Ord (California), Fort Gordon (Georgia), Fort Jackson (South Carolina) and Fort Dix (New Jersey). While stationed in Germany, Walker was an original member of the Ansbach Grizzlies, a team founded in 1979 that competed in the American Football Bundesliga (since renamed the German Football League). In addition to his role as a safety on the team, Walker helped teach native Germans the sport of football. With Walker's assistance, the Grizzlies quickly became a contender in the league and in 1981, the year he was transferred back to the U.S., they won their first German Bowl. Since relocating to Cincinnati, Walker has sought to instill the values and work ethic that he learned from the Army in his four daughters, one of whom spent five years (2012-17) in the United States Navy including time as a chef on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.
