WINDHAM — Growing up in Weymouth, Massachusetts, as the son of a lifelong firefighter, Jim Boudreau said he always knew he wanted a career in public service but “I didn’t necessarily know I’d become a police officer.”
On Dec. 17, Boudreau retired from the Windham Police Department with over 37 years of experience under his belt.
When he joined the Windham department in May of 1983, things looked very different, he said. It was an 11-man force and the department itself was only 7 years old.
