In addition to performing motorcycle escorts for fallen cops and patrolling the Big Apple's roads, Gatto also became a legend within the department for serving on the highway detail for every U.S. president from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump. Whenever the commander-in-chief was in town, regardless of party, Gatto was among those tasked with keeping them safe, and the mission was clear.
