Monthly LODD Fatality ReportIn April, 5 Fallen Heroes were designated as line-of-duty deaths. Their names will be added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Spring of 2024, and they will be honored and forever remembered. May their selflessness, bravery, and sacrifice never be forgotten.  March 2023 Officers of the Month AnnouncedSergeant Jeff Mathes, Detectives Zachary Plese, Ryan Cagle, Michael Collazo, and Officer Rex Engelbert of the Metropolitan Nashville (TN) Police Department have been honored as Officers of the Month for March 2023. These officers were selected for their bravery and heroism following an active shooter at an elementary school.  This is Why We're HereThe National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by law enforcement officers each and every day. As we reflect on the service of these fallen heroes, particularly during Police Week 2023, we are reminded of the tremendous risks that law enforcement officers face in the line of duty. We must never forget their service, sacrifice, and dedication to keeping our communities safe. If you are unable to join us on The National Mall this May 13th, then I encourage you to take a moment to reflect on the service of these brave men and women, and to honor their memory in your own way.  United by LightThis year, we’ve set a goal to light 23,785 virtual candles; one for each officer’s name on the Memorial. As a compassionate supporter, you can pay tribute to law enforcement by lighting a virtual candle with a personal message of respect, honor, or remembrance.
