In reference our phone conversation, I was hoping you could provide an excel sheet with the following information for every officer in the department:

- officer first name
- officer last name
- officer middle name
- officer age
- officer race
- officer sex
- officer rank
- officer badge number
- officer employee id
- years on force
- hired date
- retired or fired date

To clarify, I am not looking for the entire personnel jacket for each officer.
