PLEDGING TO PROTECT AND DEFEND – James J. Kenney Jr., center, on Monday (Oct. 4, 2010) became the newest patrolman in the Lower Pottsgrove (PA) Police Department. He accepted his oath of office, administered by Lower Pottsgrove resident and Magisterial District Justice Edward Kropp, left, as his grandfather, Robert Curran of Havertown PA, held the Bible on which Kenney rested his hand. Only minutes before, once Police Chief Michael Shade certified Kenney had passed applicable psychological and physical tests, the township Board of Commissioners gave its unanimous approval to the officer’s employment. He succeeds Ofc. Alan Edlund, who recently retired. Other members of Kenney’s family, and several other department officers, were on hand in the board meeting room at the municipal building, 2199 Buchert Rd., Pottstown PA, to witness the ceremony and welcome Kenney to the force.
