I came across this thread while researching my dads (Sgt. John D Hayes)Frisbee holster. I believe he got it when he became a Portland Police Officer in 1939, I also have his S/W 38. Special that was made in 1939. He then went into the Navy in WWII and when the war was over her returned to the police department. My dad and his friend officer Frank Springer battled to start the first police union in the U.S. We went camping back in the late 60's with another officer friend of his named Clay Coffee, anyway's I was wondering if anybody out there new him and had any stories. My dad died back in 83 and he never did talk much about his Navy service or his time as a Portland police officer. He left the force in the early 70's due to health issues.
