   Canandaigua City's Police Force  No. 7  Leo H. Breen

Patrolman Leo H. Breen, youthful seeker of adventure, modest and his colorful averse to much conversation about his colorful experiences, had an excellent background to fit him for his present position. In years and in term of service on the Canandaigua Police Force he is one of the younger members, but his military and naval training together with his service in the United States and Southern countries give him an equipment and an understanding out of the ordinary for a man of his years.

Leo H. Breen, son of Cornelius Breen of the undertaking firm of Ahrens and Breen, was born on April 6, 1897, in Canandaigua. He has therefore just passed his thirty-first birthday. Mr. Breen was appointed to the Canandaigua Police Force in December 1927. When but 17 years of age he enlisted in Co. B., Geneva, State Militia, and saw service on the Mexican border with his company in 1916. On the return home of that command he was mustered out of the militia and returned to Canandaigua.

In the spring of 1917 Mr. Breen sought enlistment in the Marines at Rochester with his younger brother, J. H. Breen. The brothers were sent to Charleston, S. C., where they were accepted for service on March 19, 1917, and served there until they were sent with a detachment of Marines for Duty in Cuba, remaining there six months.

In July 1918, Leo H. Breen was sent with a detachment of Marines to Haiti in connection with the depredations in that country of the bandit revolutionist leader, Charlemagne. Although there were no engagements between large forces there were lots of action and excitement. The central forces of the revolutionists could not be drawn into decisive battle but small parties were constantly operating. They would snipe from ambush and mutilation from machetes and bolos was a daily menace to the Marines.

Charlemagne was originally shot at his own camp fire by Lieut. Hannigan. The officer had planned the strategy for six months which enabled him and three of the local gendarmes, disguised as natives to enter Charlemagne's camp. When Charlemagne made a threatening movement, Hannigan shot him twice through the heart. A finger would have covered the two bullet holes, said Mr. Breen, who talks freely of the other people's nerve. The camp was immediately in an uproar. One of the gendarmes who had secreted a repeating rifle in his trouser leg, opened fire, and the bandits thinking the party was in force, quickly scattered. The war was over. Breen, with his company, returned to the Marine base at Norfolk, Virginia, where he was on duty until the term of his enlistment expired in 1921.

He reenlisted for another four year term within 24 hours. During a furlough spent in Canandaigua, Mr. Breen married Miss Helen Hill, also of this city, and the bride and groom returned to Norfolk. His company was shortly ordered to San Domingo to quell insurrection and the remainder of his enlistment was spent in duty there and at Norfolk.

Mrs. Breen accompanied him. Mr. Breen was promoted to quartermaster sergeant in 1919, which rank he retained throughout his service.  When he returned to Canandaigua in 1925, Mr. Breen took the civil service examination for patrolman, and was appointed to the force in December 1927. 

Officer Leo H. Breen is known as an obedient and tactful officer, and his superiors and fellow peace keepers hold him in high esteem. Mr. and Mrs. Breen and Leo H. Breen live at 215 Park Street.

Edward M.3 Breen was born Hopewell, New York December 03, 1902. Edward died January 27, 1964 at 61 years of age.
