Sheriff Thomas H. Mogle, Jr., has lined up the members of his department for an inspection in July 1967 and the Cecil Democrat’s photographer was on hand to take picture.  About this time, the new sheriff was outlining the challenges he faced with providing around the clock law enforcement with such a small force.  A number of the men are special deputies, meaning that they were either volunteers or perhaps worked part-time.  In this era Cecil County Law Enforcement agencies maintained a large corps of volunteers to supplement the small number of certified officers.
