This photo is on sale on E-Bay at the moment.

The Seller doesn’t know the original owner or person in the photo.

This NSW Police Sergeant 2nd Class would have possibly been in ‘the job’ pre NSWPF new Registered Number system commencing on 24 February 1915, so he would either have a very early Registered number or a very late ( pre NSWPF ) number which went up to 9999.

The photo was taken by Dalmar Studio, Crows Nest ( NSW ) and would have been either on, for before, 18 May 1936 – although there is a further date of 8/12/?11 – although this could also be a ‘price’ – although 8pound would be rather expensive for a photo.

Your thoughts and investigation would be appreciated.

BRIEF FACTS OF ACTS OF BRAVERY BY POLICE

The facts, briefly, associated with acts of bravery performed by Police during the year 1967 are as set out hereunder.

10. On 14th June, 1967, at North Richmond, Constable 1st Class William Andrew Shute, whilst seated in a Departmental motor car, was confronted by a man whom he had followed.

The man held a loaded sawn-off rifle at the Constable’s head. Whilst this was happening the Constable endeavoured to draw his pistol. The man directed the Constable to surrender his pistol. The Constable refused and removed the ignition keys from the Police car. He then alighted from the car and when he did so the man shot him on a number of occasions in the leg.

The man was later arrested and charged with maliciously wounding the Constable and other offences.

Great service to NSW and much good kudos for you SSgt Thomo

( Mick FULLER # 24552

Senior Sergeant John THOMPSON # 10718 )

Andrew Southall

I remember John when he was a Cadet and his father worked at the Fingerprints Section which was then located at the Police Training Centre at Redfern.

John’s Dad rode a motor cycle outfit to and from work and John would arrive at the PTC of a morning sitting up very proudly in the sidecar.

After nearly 60 years of service with the NSW Police Force, Senior Sergeant John Thompson is ready to call time on his distinguished career.

The decorated officer – who began as a 17-year-old police cadet in Redfern in 1962 before being officially sworn in on his 19th birthday – started his long service leave on Friday (15 May 2020) and will officially retire from the force in January 2023.

Senior Sergeant Thompson will retire after 61 years; making him the longest-serving police officer in NSW.

But his connection with the NSW Police Force started well before that – he was born at Gulargambone Police Station in 1944.

His father, uncle and great-grandfather also served as police officers – his great-grandfather, Sub Inspector John Carroll, arrested Andrew George Scott (also known as Captain Moonlight the Bushranger) in Gundagai back in 1879.

Snr Sgt Thompson started as a probationary constable at Parramatta Police Station and has worked in various commands across the force, including Chatswood, Surry Hills, and Police Transport Branch.

He also worked the 21 Division, where he served with his father, Senior Sergeant Ross Thompson. The 21 Division was the training ground for the Criminal Investigations Branch for many years until its disbandment.

During his career, he has been awarded the NSW Police medal, the National Police Service Medal, the National Medal as well as clasps, and the 150th NSW Police Force Anniversary medal.

He also received a letter of thanks for his service from the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge following their visit to Australia in 2014.

For the last 20 years of his career, Snr Sgt Thompson has worked in the State Planning Unit at major events across the state, including New Year’s Eve, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, Bathurst 1000, and the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

His last arrest was three years ago while working at the New Year’s Eve celebrations for an alleged aggravated robbery.
