Very interesting stuff. I'm always amazed when I see these old pictures how (relatively) little the police uniforms changed over the years. I mean, sure you don't wear the horse coats and have all those brass buttons, but I mean the basics...the shield is the same, the cap devices, the pants where you can even see the black stripe. I'm always fascinated by that.
One quick question, though. What is the "excursion-ship stampede of 1941" the pictures refer to? I haven't heard anything of it and I attempted to google it with no results.
I figure imsuit had probably about 10 years or so on the job back then, maybe he can shed some light.

Hmmm...... he had to pay full price + full boat. I think I just discovered the origin of that phrase.

Like Father, Like Son
Here we see Imsuit's father on foot patrol pass by a body on the sidewalk.So this is where Imsuit got his schooling in flagging calls. ;D
