As to be expected, the Boston Police patrolman's union representative was adamant in insisting that the wayward boat, slipping its' dock mooring unnoticed for hours in the wee hours of the night was an Act of God having occurred during a huge ocean storm and how the officers should be commended for retriev'n the battered boat in the dark of night and unfriendly seas........amen, brother!....we'll all raise a glass and drink to that one. .......
Said one Boston cop to another....."hey Frankie....where's the boat?"

the police union was complaining about the lack of supervisory staff on during that shift, not defending the cops that eventually lost their assignments with the marine unit.
