here’s a new lieutenant in town. Last month, Mineola resident Regis Gallet was promoted to the rank of lieutenant within the Mineola Auxiliary Police Department (MAPD) after being within the department for almost 30 years. “About 30 years ago, a friend of mine and I saw the auxiliary police in action at the Bellmore train station and we were very interested in contributing,” Gallet said.
