Of particular interest was young Probationary Constable Jake, on his 2nd day in the job, in a photo taken with our oldest Northern Beaches RPA Member, Arthur Neville # 5823 ( who was a Boss at Mona Vale in the 1980s ) and Supt Dave Darcy.
All those attending were presented with a ‘Retired’ lapel pin.
Thanks to Supt Darcy and all who were on hand to make this memorable event possible.

Arthur married Doreen Margaret NEVILLE – nee MAES in 1949 and they had two children.
Nothing further, than what is recorded above, is known about this person at the time of publication and further information and photos would be appreciated.
