According to Ron Schott, of dropzone.com, Sylvester Armand St. Cyr was “A
paratrooper in the US ARMY in the early 1950's, he was also a two-time boxing champion and coach of the championship team
while on duty in Korea. Following his stint in the military he became an undercover narcotics officer for the New Orleans
Police Department. As a New Orleans patrolman, he was the victim of kidnapping and attempted murder. He escaped by defying
the perpetrator's orders to run a police road block with his cruiser and instead aimed it at a tree and jumped just prior
to the vehicle's impact. His adventures in undercover work and the characters he met provided the background material for
his book, The Saint and Sinners.”
