Happy 76th Birthday Frank Serpico





NYPD owes a lot to today's birthday boy, Frank Serpico for his stand against police corruption and his Knapp Commission Testimony back in 1971.


He well deserves the New York City Police Department's highest honor, the Medal of Honor, which he received a month before his retirement from the force in 1972.
