Tom, I can watch without a uniform and I call the police often. Yours is noble effort. Criminals generally laugh at auxiliary cops, but that is not the point; it is that extra eyes are watching. You wouldn't need such a patrol if most just called the police and informed and criminals knew that. Yahoo!
