Frank “Mike” Abreu, Deputy FSD along with Bill Dailey, DAFSD and Cy Okinaka, AFSD, presented Alfred Dela Cruz with a Certificate of Appreciation on behalf of the Transportation Security Administration along with a beautiful two sided coin (photo below) for his protection of their officers from an irate passenger at one of their check points; and for his quick actions, outstanding professionalism in the performance of his duties.



On Wednesday,  July 18, 2012,  a male passenger going through one of the TSA check points suddenly started yelling, becoming overbearing and uncontrollable. When Alfred Dela Cruz stepped in to assist, the passenger started throwing punches at him.  To protect other passengers as well as TSA personnel at the check point, Al defended himself and with the  help of the TSA STSO Supervisor, Gary Tasoe, both had the passenger under control within minutes until help arrived. “Great team work” to  Alfred Dela Cruz and Gary Tasoe.
