IMPORTANT
To all members of local 419... I would like to take this
opportunity to remind our members that this website is
controlled by brother and sister officers of local 419.
This union and others thrive on the ideas of it's members. It is
in that spirit that I remind our veteran members as well as
inform our new members this website can be the forum to
broadcast your thoughts to others. It is very simple to
do.
1. Be a member of
419 in good standing.

or use our feedback page to enter
your thought or comments.
2Please
keep the subject matter free from profanity and on point.
3. Include your

"Bomb tossing"
(anonymous or not), doesn't get taken seriously and will not get

IMPORTANT
To My Brothers and Sisters of
Local 419:
Recently I was told that I should check out a new website called
badgewars.com. As most of you know I am not very computer savvy, but
I managed to find and read it. I was not impressed with the site and
I am very concerned with what is being written about 419 members,
presumably by other 419 members. This site was created to cause
controversy and turmoil only. It was no doubt created by someone who
is disillusioned with their chosen profession and who wishes to sit
in judgment of others under the protection of anonymity.
I urge all members of Local 419 to stay away from this site and
others like it. I also ask that members avoid attacking each other
and other departments in this type of forum. These "ANONYMOUS"
bashings serve no purpose other than cast all agencies in a bad
light. They help to promote the public's mistrust in law enforcement
and also "bad blood" between each agency.
In closing I would like to remind everyone that nothing is ever
really "ANONYMOUS". As always I ask forgiveness for any poor
spelling or grammatical errors.
In Solidarity,
Thomas J. Flynn Local 419

To
all members of Local 419,
As many of you may have heard, I have been appointed Chairman of the
local 419 Officers Relief Association by our President Tom Flynn. In the
last 6 weeks I have had many conversations with many of you with regards
to how the officers fund was viewed within our dept, in addition to some
of the things you would like the fund to accomplish.
I have had several conversations with members of the Boston Police,
Boston EMS, Chelsea Police, Revere Police and Winthrop Police relief
associations to not only bounce some ideas around about raising funds
for this important cause, but, also strengthen our relationship with
these associations in our county. I was very pleased with the support
these depts. showed me and look forward to working with them in the
future.
In the coming days and weeks my function as chairman will no doubt be
the most difficult as I am in the process of securing venders that can
offer us the best price on products such as shirts and window stickers
without compromising quality. I would ask that if you have any ideas on
apparel from key chains to golf shirts let me know.
My tallest task that lies ahead is building a team that can help me get
this association to a place where it is effective in helping our members
in times of need. I have some great ideas to get us to that point and am
excited about the future. From a 2009 SCSD calendar to a 2009 awards
banquet, this association will be much more than shirts and hats. If you
are interested in joining me on the board do not hesitate to call me
(3-11 shift).
In closing I would like to thank Tom Flynn and all members of the
E-Board for giving me this opportunity to rebuild something that will
have a direct effect on every member of this department. I am truly
excited about the future of this association, and promise that every
facet of this association will center around one thing... you. This is
your fund, I will never loose sight of that.
Sincerely,
Greg Christian
