Since I am away leading the joint Shomrim, Holy Name and Muslim Officers Societies Mission to the Middle East I will keep my message very short. When I return to New York I expect to see each and every one of you at our three fantastic special events scheduled for the month of June and listed on the cover page and just below. Be sure to attend and get my first hand report on this historical trip.

On May 25th First Vice-President Isaac Franco hosted a group of disabled Israeli soldiers on a tour of the Police Museum. Shomrim Brothers Adam Berish, Benjamin Gelber, Harvey Hecker and Gary Marcus assisted with the tour and distributed N.Y.P.D. memorabilia to our guests. The group expressed their thanks and posed for pictures outside the museum. The two hour tour left the Shomrim members and Israeli soldiers longing for more time to exchange stories and compare our very different but amazingly similar jobs of protecting and serving the public.

Have a wonderful and safe summer.
