Cleveland Metro Health police officer and former Veterans Affairs & Plain Twp. (Canton, OH) Firefighter/EMT Scott Dillon, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 2003.

In an attempt to set a Guinness World Record, he is collecting donated service patches from various Police, Fire, EMS, and Security departments from around the world.

Officer Dillon started this quest while in isolation battling non-Hodgkins lymphoma at MetroHealth in Cleveland, Ohio, on September 11, 2003. This record setting collection will be auctioned off on e-Bay when the attempt to break the record is reached.

Officer Dillon has postponed the previous set auction date due to health setbacks and requests from federal, state, and local departments, as well as local media. The proceeds will be donated to the American Cancer Society and Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in honor of all police officers,
firefighters, EMS personnel and security officers.

To set the Guinness record, 2,811 patches are required. Officer Dillon currently has over 1,100 patches donated. Won't you help Officer Dillon with his collection by sending your departments patch to: Officer Scott Dillon, PO Box 292, Munroe Falls, OH 44262

Thank you for your help in setting this record.
Financial donations are accepted to help pay correspondence and postage expenses associated with contacting federal, state, and local departments.
Sincerely,
Officer Scott Dillon, #242
