Badges of Honor - The History of the West Springfield Police Department

Badges of Honor - The History of the West Springfield Police Department
by Phyllis A. Austin-Bertera

The story of the police departments, from the humble beginnings in the 1800s to the
state-of-the-art unit of today, is told with fresh insight by West Springfield native Phyllis
Austin-Bertera. Having served on the last Board of Selectmen, one of her duties was that of
Police Commissioner. This gave her an inside look at the operations of the police department,
and inspired her to tell the tales of the chiefs who have led these men for over one hundred
years. It contains an extensive index of local family names and places. A sample of this index
is available in a PDF file and can be downloaded here (*PDF files require the free Adobe
Acrobat Reader available here).
