In Remembrance of Our Brothers

Joseph G. Fawcett "Sarge"

 EOW: October 20, 2019

Sarge was a PA Road Dawg Member in the North-East Chapter.

Sarge was also retired from the PA State Police as a Sergeant. 

Sarge was also a Vietnam Vet serving with the USMC.

 Corporal Joseph Pokorny was shot and killed following a short pursuit near an exit ramp from I-376 in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, shortly after 0200 hours on December 12th, 2005.

Corporal Pokorny had served with the Pennsylvania State Police for 22-1/2 years, and was assigned to Troop B, Pittsburgh. He is survived by his son, daughter, and parents. His son graduated from the Pennsylvania State Police academy on March 15th, 2013.

Corporal Pokorny is the only active-duty Road Dawg killed in the line of duty. 

 On May 11, 2012 we lost a great man, father, husband, Sergeant, and brother. Gary “Wrongway” Norton loved being on his motorcycle, and with his brother Road Dawgs when he was not working at Bedford Police Department. Gary earned his nickname by always making a wrong turn at the intersections. Therefore, he was never able to be the Road Boss and became the Sgt-At-Arms. Gary was always willing to go for a ride, whether it be a short ride or a long ride. He always looked forward to making the runs to DC for police week. Gary always had a smile on his face. He was always willing to help out brother Dawgs or their families. R.I.P. Wrongway you will never be forgotten.

longest serving Road Dawgs, with over 25 years

as a member of the New Hampshire Chapter 

where it all started. Phil leaves behind a legacy
