When they talk about the SIRENS 😊 my all time favorite NYPD patrol vehicle was the TWO big clear dome ( Red & clear) Rotating and the TWO Red flashers next to the siren speaker. That light bar system put out a TON of emergency Flashes 😊 My guess is it had huge draw on batteries In today's light bar, the "V" pattern flashers That company that makes those comes out with "NEW" flashing lights each year to upgrade those "V" pattern emergency light bars.😊

The Glocks had bad trigger pull’s because NYC wanted it that way. They normally don’t. I’m 60, retire from a Michigan department, working armed security at a hospital ER. I still have the crease in my sleeves, spit shined boot and the old school mustache 😅

Sergeant Gillis was my sergeant for a short time in the 77 precinct before he went back to ESU. Excellent man, for sure. RIP, Sarge.

I was LAPD in the 90’s. The NYPD sent a delegation of their command staff to LA to check out our LAPD blue uniforms. At that time, the color, badges etc were trademarked by the city of Los Angeles. NYPD saw the blue uniforms and made the change in the 90’s after seeing our uniforms.

In 1969, my 7 year old brother got lost at the Rambles in Central Park. My dad and I looked all over. We found him with an NYPD officer, who offered him ice cream while they waited. It’s the small things they do that make a big difference.

Thank you so much for posting that video. I served from 1982 at the age of 20 through 2002, retiring as a Lieutenant in Narcotics. So many memories and shared experiences I remembered with at least two of the three Lieutenants interviewed. My Detectives used to brag about having an LT that had to constantly clean ear wax off the front sight of his duty pistol. I took that as a badge of pride. The RMP modifications, the uniform memories, 9/11 stories all resonated deeply within me. I will say this, I wore the light blue, dark blue, and white uniform shirts. Every single day I wore a newly cleaned and pressed shirt, and usually fresh trousers as well. There was only one exception and that was 9/11. Spent three days in the same uniform and pants, and put them away in plastic when I finally got to take them off. There were people embedded in those clothes, and I never forgot that.

I wish they bring back the 90s Blue & White livery. Very iconic and high visibility, like people would know it's a police vehicle the second they saw it just like the regular black & white that sticks out the rest of the vehicle on the street.

Great video! Policing is such difficult profession because if you haven't done it, its hard to truly explain or describe to others how complex it is both dealing with the general public and the internal politics of the organization. I'm amazed permission was granted for this video, especially after the ESU Lt. says he would NOT recommend the profession, in the current climate, to those who might be interested. Interviews of recently retired officers would give a much different perspective because they wouldn't be afraid of retaliation for speaking the truth about the NYPD in general.

Awesome video about true stories from the real hero's who experienced it first hand. Would love to see more. Thank to the NYPD and all first responders who put their lives on the line everyday to make us safe and also have to deal with the crappy DA's who let the criminals out with low or no bail.

The two officers that were ambushed were dispatched on what turned out to be a false call. There was a book written about it titled 'Badge of the Assassin'.

One minor correction: The NYPD officially switched over to the dark blue shirts on October 1st, 1995. I remember walking into the station house near the end of the 3rd platoon shift on September 30th, 1995, wearing the light blue shirt for the last time ever and seeing the 1st platoon finishing up roll call wearing the dark blue shirts. It was definitely a strange sight to see that first time. As I recall, most of us welcomed the change from light blue to dark blue; the main issue at first was finding a halfway decent quality shirt since there were so many of us obtaining these new shirts at the same time. One important and historic change that I wish was mentioned was the merger of the NYC Transit Police and NYC Housing Authority Police Departments with the NYPD. Both of these mergers took place in 1995, starting with Transit PD on April 2nd, 1995. Housing PD followed a month later, on May 1st.

I came in with the light blue shirts. They really showed the sweat stains in the summer.

I really loved this for two reasons. First, I’m fascinated with the details and personalities because I’ve never been a police officer, but we all (or almost all) have worked with the “messy guy,” the “gossiper,” etc. That’s a human experience of work. And I love that that’s so near-universal. I also love it because it portrayed (and granted, this is my opinion) police in the light in which they are: a group of people, with flaws, on a bell curve, some better than others, but by and large doing their best and some days, like 9/11, doing the extraordinary. I thank you all who served, and I salute you.
