HAPPYTHANKSGIVING!

Shipmates,
 
this was a message sent out by the President of The Sergeant's Benevolent Association of the NYPD. It is a sentiment I wish to both echo and share... Please read the below message... Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
 

More than any other nation or civilized people to walk this earth, we have more cause to be thankful on this Thanksgiving Day.

In weeks past, as a result of Hurricane Sandy we have been challenged with the task of rebuilding our homes, futures and lives'. Concerned for the well being of our children, friends and families each of you in one way or another moved forward embracing the obstacles born upon you and at times helping others along the way.

I want to thank each of you for your support, your effort in helping one another and for the opportunity to serve as your Division Commander.

On this Thanksgiving Day, I encourage all of you to enjoy each moment with your families, treasure the value of time. Remember all of our members who suffered losses and remain outside their homes. And, all those and their families who have sacrificed their lives' in the commitment to service for our city and the freedom of our nation and to thank God for all that we have and all the years he has granted us.

On behalf of the entire Board of Officers, I wish each of you a Happy Thanksgiving.
