Milford Police recognize Sgt. Brent Murray, who signed off for the final time following Saturday's Christmas parade, after 27 years of service.

"Sgt. Murray began his career with the Milford Police Department in January of 1999, after serving four distinguished years in the United States Army as a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division," dispatch said.
