Remembering the Fallen

“Fly the Blue” Blue Ribbon Campaign Honors Law Enforcement

This coming week thousands will gather in Washington D.C. to honor the law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty this past year.  Though you may not be able to travel to the nation’s capital, you can still remember and honor our community’s police officers by tying a blue ribbon from your car antenna.

During National Police Week (the week containing May 15, which is National Peace Officer’s Memorial Day), Concerns Of Police Survivors encourages the display of  blue ribbons on car antennas. You can learn more about National Police Week and C.O.P.S. by visiting: http://www.nationalcops.org/.

I hope you will join the law enforcement personnel and citizens from across the country who have tied blue ribbons to their antennas as a reminder of the  police officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice and in honor of those men and women who serve their communities 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, year in and year out.  Any strip of royal blue ribbon will work.
