Bpd EmeraldSociety Pride in our Heritage The Society quickly took off in 1973 and practically over night we had half the force as members. We have taken part in the annual St.
(1)

The Boston Police Department was the first organized police force in the country (1854) and one of the first departments to form an emerald society within it's ranks. Spawned in a local Irish tavern in the South End section of Boston, JJ Foley's was the gathering place after the first half to help solve the problems of the world and come down a little from the job before going home for the evening

. We drew up our by-laws and were chartered by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a non-profit organization. For the first ten years we held our monthly meetings at VFW Post 1018 until we purchased our present building at 10 Birch Street, formerly a bank. Over the years we have contributed to many worthwhile charities here and abroad. We have found time to make our Society known throughout the world and, naturally, Ireland. Patrick's Day Parade in many cities around the country including our own in Boston. We continue to show "Pride in our Heritage".

Memorial Day serves as a solemn occasion to honor the valiant men and women of the United States Armed Forces who sacrificed their lives in the service of their country. It is a day of profound respect and remembrance for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their nation.

Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us; it is a precious privilege that is earned through the unwavering dedication and sacrifices of our fallen heroes.

On Monday, May 25, 2026, we pay tribute to their memories and the immense sacrifices they made to ensure the freedom and prosperity of our nation.

May God bless America.

Fraternally,
Martin Bellew,
President
