Robert Henry Holmes was the second Black officer recruited for the NYPD and the first to die in the line of duty. Ale Swider was a Russian immigrant, WWI veteran and motorcycle cop. We will come together to celebrate their lives and honor their sacrifices. We're partnering with Newtown Historical Society, NYC Police Benevolent Association, Blue Knights NY and Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 32 for this event. We look forward to your participation.

The event takes place entirely outdoors within a 71 acre cemetery which allows for adequate social distancing. Refreshments will be provided. ... See MoreSee Less
