the
mighty
18th
and
we
got
together
and
it's
taken
us
this
long
to
get
them,
but
that's
the
way
it
is
sometimes
and
we're
just
grateful
that
this
day
has
finally
come
and
we
thank
all
of
those
who
are
with
them.
Certainly
we
see
our
police
Community
Relations

in
the
18.
We
see
our

We
say

of
those
who
are
here.

J
City

were
greatly
appreciative
of
this
award.
It's
very
nice
to

get

what
we've

doctors,
appointments
and
stuff.
So

I.
Thank
