L to R Sylvia Trippett, Dave Cox, Ervin Hull, Bill Allender, Jim Hotsinpiller, John Diamond, Carl Furbee, Clarence Sigley, Don Trippett, Steve Alfred, George Davis, Roy Collins. We did a good job with twelve people we had at that time. Shared two cars among us. Pontiac Police Pursuit...those babies were fast. 165 and 166 were the numbers, taken from the serial number off the box the two way radios came in. There behind us in the photo. They ran 24 hours a day. Revolvers instead of semi automatic pistols. Brown instead of blue. There were also 4 or 5 auxiliary officers, Bud Calfee, Ross Buckannon, Joe Clutter Tom Kenny, Ray Tackett. Two men per shift. Now there's what, 40 of each, cars and men. My how thangs change. All but three of the men mentioned have died.
