In August of 2004, one of our
members, Jim Maguire, traveled to England and Ireland. While he
was there, he was given a tour of one of the southern Ireland "Garda"
(Police) headquarters and did a 10 hour ride-along with the Norfolk
Constabulary in Norfolk, England. Here are some of the photos.
Many thanks to the officers of the Tullamore Garda (Ireland) and the
Norfolk Constabulary (England), especially Sgt. Dave Cartwright who's
courtesy and professionalism is exceeded only by our friendship.
