Lititz Borough – The LBPD is once again blue for National Police Week thank to our friends from Stray Production Services.
The blue lights are meant to remember and honor the over 22,000 officers that have died in the line of duty throughout U.S. history. According to the National Law Enforcement memorial, this year the names of 394 officers killed in the line of duty were added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC. These 394 officers included 295 officers who were killed during 2020, plus 99 officers who died in previous years but whose stories of sacrifice had been lost to history until now.
This year, Police Week is Sunday May 9th through Saturday May 15th. To learn more about police week or the NLEOM please visit: https://nleomf.org/
