Below is my personal Jr Deputy Sheriff's League Badge from the early 70's.

This is the city, Decatur, GA. I carry a badge.

The story your about to hear is true.

The Dekalb County Police Department had a similar program when they opened it's new Dekalb County Police Department building back in the early 70's

I can remember Dekalb County Police cars being gold in color about the color of Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
