The MJFD would like to congratulate Jim Ryan, who earlier today was sworn in as the 7th Chief of the South Brunswick Township Police Department. Chief Ryan has served our community with distinction throughout his 31-year law enforcement career, and will undoubtedly continue to uphold the highest-level of integrity the organization has shown throughout its 90-year history. Today's beautiful ceremony was attended by numerous local, county and state officials, current and retired police officers, family and friends, as well as all three township fire chiefs.

We would like to recognize Chief Ryan for his tireless dedication to his family and to our community, and for including the fire chiefs in today's ceremony. Chief Ryan has always been an advocate for cooperation between all emergency services organizations, and we look forward to continuing our partnership to serve the residents of South Brunswick Township. Congratulations Chief Ryan and we wish you much success in your new position.
