President’s Message: A Sign of Support for Officers Who Serve in the Military
The law enforcement profession attracts a special kind of person. As police chiefs, we have the privilege of working with some of the finest individuals in the world—individuals who have at their foundation a set of core values that reflect the nature of our profession: values such as service, dignity and respect for others, honor, integrity, courage, loyalty, and duty. Our officers have voluntarily chosen a profession whose very nature places them in harm’s way. When others flee from the sound of gunfire and the threat of violence, it is a police officer’s duty to run toward it.
