Milton Murray Marsh [pictured with current Commissioner of Police Michael DeSilva, see video] was born in Charlestown, Nevis, in the British West Indies on 17th February 1909. He was raised 
between Charlestown and Basseterre, St. Kitts, and his father, Arthur Alexander Marsh was a police officer, so perhaps law enforcement was in his blood. After leaving school Milton worked for a time in a hardware store in Basseterre and he then became Assistant to the Head Store Man in the Works Department (similar to the old Public Works Department in Bermuda).
