Class Acts in Colorado

We can't say enough about the Denver and Englewood Police Departments:
  • Densey Cole II lay paralyzed almost 1,000 miles from where he works as a Chicago cop and had a visitor -- the police chief of Denver.

    "He didn't just visit me, he saluted me," Cole said of Gerald Whitman. "That's the class act he is."

    Officers in and around Englewood, Colo., where Cole has been treated since July for a spinal cord injury, think he is the class act and have adopted him and his wife, giving them tickets to concerts and sports contests and lending an old police cruiser.

  • Police officers say it's common for them to support brethren wherever they are. But in Denver, where injured officers from around the country come for treatment at Craig, there is an organized outreach coordinated by the Englewood Police Department.
The entire article is high praise for our brothers and sisters in blue. And the number of Chicago Police who have gone out to Denver to visit and lend support is inspiring. Many are listed by name and quoted in the article. You bring pride to an embattled organization with your efforts.
