HIGH NOON LUNCH

The first Wednesday of the month we have a group of Retired Policemen that meet at the Crystal Restaurant in downtown Watertown for Lunch, we usually gather for about an Hour.  Discussions cover everything except POLITICS !!!    There are anywhere from 2 to 15 that gather for lunch !!
.
.
Above is a luncheon from 2001 when we had quite a few retirees,   4 of these Officers passed away shortly after this picture was taken.

The above picture is my Classmates,  Ray, Barry, Nick, Steve, John, Me, Dale and Jim.  Missing George. and Reid.   We were all hired at the same time and all went thru Basic and Street Survival and all graduated as the largest class ever held, we maintain that record of the biggest class, sadly we have lost Reid, Nick, Steve. 
.

.
These 4 were Wednesdays HIGH NOON LUNCH crowd,  Me, Art, Leo and  Charlie,  good time !!!
.
We do not get any retirees who we didn't work with, we invited them but they really do not want much to do with us, they are a different Breed and not very close to each other the way we were !
