Dear Mr. President,

As a loyal American and a retired New York City Policeman (35 years experience), I was very inspired by your speech tonight. I was especially touched by your remembrance of P.O. George Howard. Although I did not know him, I have special feelings for officers that I had the privilege of working with, including those of which I had no personal contact. God Bless America.

Retired New York City Policeman
