"In the annals of history, no police department in the history of the world was asked to do what we (were) asked,"

I think the NYPD would beg to differ.

It makes you realize how tough...and special... the folks who serve in the military are. All branches of the military are down in the Gulf Coast, doing a tremendous job. No one is offering them a trip to Vegas. Some of them are battle-hardened, having returned from Iraq.

A special thanks to all who serve or who have served.

I think those 26 or so police officers in another coastal area that spent the storm in trees and then got to work as soon as they could climb down would probably beg to differ, too.

I had huge arguments with family members who think everything possible was done before and after the storm. My sis hadnt even heard that there was a disaster plan which included buses to use if needed. MSM hides the truth from all.
