We speak with Patrol Sergeant Chris Balestra Of Brunswick Police Department about Real Men Wear Pink Campaign.  Breast cancer affects everyone – it doesn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman. That’s why we are stepping up to fight breast cancer with all we have. Since we are in a position to make a difference within our community, we believe we have an obligation to do so. By raising money and awareness through Real Men Wear Pink, we are helping to save more lives from breast cancer.
