PBA President reacts to the death of 42-year-old police officer Robert Oswain of 9/11-related cancer

PBA president Patrick J. Lynch said:

“Police Officer Robert Oswain is one of the forgotten heroes of 9/11. More must be done on a federal level for the thousands who answered the call without question and were stricken from toxic exposure. Sadly, we will not know the exact cost in lives of that terrorist attack for several decades. We are deeply saddened by his passing and our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.”
