Patrolman William O'Malley :
It is so sad that the names of John Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson are so known. It is your name Patrolman William O'Malley that should be known. You are a hero and a man to be looked up to. May you rest in peace and thank you and your family for the ultimate sacrifice. WE are a better people today because you walked among us yesterday.

1934 was a bloody year for the police of East Chicago, for 3 of our men in blue paid their lives. The story of the your brave actions at the First National Bank lives on. You will never be forgotten for your actions that day. Thank you for your service.

Your dedication to duty and bravery 77 years ago is a true example of the professuionalism of the Chicago Police Department. As noted by another poster here, your warning given to citizens possibly saved several lives. Thank you for your service.

Will-

I was raised in the East Chicago area and grew up hearing the stories about the fateful day at the First National. Its truly disturbing that Hollywood has recently idolized him as a "Robin Hood" type person.They however fail to mention the people he and his gang had murdered,threatened, terrified, stole from, and assaulted, among other things. I am posting this to honor your sacrifice and to let you know that your brothers of the Badge know what kind of hero you are and the lives you saved that day. Please keep an eye on us down here from above!

Officer O'Malley passed a warning to the occupants of my father's drug store just before the beginning of the firefight with the Dillinger gang. The windows of the store were shot out in the brief encounter. Officer O"Malley quite possibility saved several lives that day.

Patrolman O'Malley, I just recently watched a program about John Dillinger and your murder was extensively mentioned. You tried to catch that miserable S.O.B. and lost your life in the process. Who knows how many lives might have been spared if you had been successful. What you did succeed in was becoming a hero for trying. You didn't truly have a chance, but you made the supreme effort and for that, we should all be grateful.

I'm glad to know that Dillinger didn't last all that much longer.

God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.
