On the S.W.A.T. episode ‘Thai Another Day,’ while Hondo (Shemar Moore) teams up with Thailand’s elite S.W.A.T. team to stop a ruthless drug lord whose heroin operation has far-reaching ties to Los Angeles, new recruit Powell works side-by-side with Commander Robert Hicks (Patrick St. Esprit).
New S.W.A.T. recruit Powell is portrayed by Anna Enger Ritch. She’s known for her roles on Walker (Julia), NCIS: New Orleans (Kara Valentino — video below), and Chicago Med (Agent Lee), among others.
Get ready to see more of Ritch: she’s scheduled to appear next on the big screen in the drama On a Wing and a Prayer with Dennis Quaid, Heather Graham, and Jesse Metcalfe.

Roma Downey (Touched by an Angel) produces.
Dennis Quaid spends a lot of time on small private planes…
