Reflections for Patrolman Robert Rosenbloom

Thank you for your service to our country and the citizens of New Mexico. Even though your intended targets never went through man's formal justice system, God will serve justice on them at His court.

I was only 4 when this happened, so I don't remember the events leading to your untimely sacrifice. Today, I happened to look at those who had given their lives on this date and saw someone from New Mexico. Since my husband is in law enforcement, I often stop by to honor the men and women who unselfishly sacrifice their own time, and sometimes lives, to protect those they do not know. It takes a person of great courage to stand in harm's way. Thank you for that having that courage.

May you rest in peace, proud warrior. Your brothers and sisters walk the thin blue line in your honor.

Patrolman Rosenbloom,
On today, the 34th anniversary of your murder, I would like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice, not just for the state of New Mexico, but for our Country as well when you served in the U.S. Army during WWII.

Bob was a personal friend of mine, who served with me in The US. Army Military Police Corps. I am to date, close friends with his widow, children and grand children. He was a fine man who loved being a police officer. He pulled himself up by his own bootstraps to become one of New Mexico's finest. In recent years, he was honored by the State, When a public building in Albuquerque was named after him. His widow Linda attended the ceremony. One of his three killers has since drown, the other two remain protected by the Cuban Government in Cuba.

I learned of Officer Rosenblooms story from a website set up by his widow. I was touched by her story and angered by the story of her husbands killers. Since September 11 many people are paying more attention to "terrorists" around the world. I only hope that we can all remember the "terrorists" of the 1960's and 1970's that took the lives of so many officer in this country.
