In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as National Peace
Officers Memorial Day. Today, President Barack Obama addressed the
thousands of people gathered at today’s service at the National Law Enforcement
Officers Memorial in Washington, DC. The Prince George’s County Police
Department would like to pause and reflect upon the lives, service, and sacrifice of the 52 men and
women who have selflessly given their lives in service to the citizens of
Prince George's County. We seek to pay
tribute to those who have gone before us. Today and always, we remember and honor the fallen
heroes of Prince George's County, Maryland.
