I love this chestnut of early 50's Detroit,before the fall..i know it seems corny to all you born after the 80's..back then it wasn't a crime to love your city or country.your generation will never know a Detroit that wasn't a basket case..i left detroit in 1972..the city died the day after i left it..i was 11 then..detroit will never recover. ever..

My father was one of the detectives. More than likely we were in the stands at the U of D Stadium. My family has a combined total of close to, if not more than, 300 years service the Police and Sheriff departments of southeastern Michigan.
