NEW YORK CITY, Ny. - It has to be fulfilling for a father when his sons follow in his footsteps.
But how about all three of them? And on the same day...
Well, that's what happened this week for Anthony Favale, a 30-year veteran of the NYPD.
Favale watched on Tuesday as his three sons, 24-year-old Stephen and 22-year-old twins Alec and John, graduated from the Police Academy as part of the same class.
The Favales joined more than 1,200 other cadets in the swearing-in ceremony at Madison Square Garden.
“It was always a hope of mine to have three kids in the same career, let alone same class,” Anthony told the New York Post. “I thought it would be too much of a fantasy to go down this way, but the planets were aligned.”
