While working on putting this page together, a page with Misc police pictures of our brothers and sisters in the field, doing what we do—pictures that will help preserve our history and provide some sort of back-up or assistance to the active officers. My thought was to call it either "Police Paparazzi" or "Paparazzi Police," each having a funny meaning, but police in front of or behind the word Paparazzi can give it a different meaning and still not change the effects of the shot. I or any one of us that stops to take a picture of our brothers in the line of duty, and if need be, the on-scene 10–16, as I am sure if the officer needed a backup, we would put down the camera and help. All that said and done, I was talking this over with one of my site developers and design techs. I was a little excited ( I know hard to believe—I get a little excited about police stuff, our history, my time with the BPD and this site.) Anyway, I was a little excited, and when I went to say one of these two police/paparazzi/police phrases, not knowing which should go first, my mouth took over and coined a new phrase, a phrase that I think will be the phrase we are going to use. I called it "Cop-parazzi." It was funny how it just popped out.

Sgt James Dixon was a desk sergeant at the WD and a great man. He was a Montford Point Marine during WWII.  Around 2012 he along with other African American WWII Marines received the Congressional Gold Medal. Ret Sgt Al Yeater got the department to honor Sgt Dixon up in the PC boardroom.

We didn't think this was us (BPD) and still don't, aside from the look of the badges and hat devices 
The officer with the nightstick isn't holding it like a Baltimore officer. This in our opinion is not Baltimore Police, but the pic is good to show even in the old days, Baltimore police held their Espantoon one way, and everyone else held their nightsticks another.

This is how we hold our stick, (it's not a handle, it's a burl-head/barrel-head)
It is what makes a nightstick in anyone else's hands an Espantoon in ours
