Washington, D.C. — Today, on National Peace Officers Memorial Day (May 15), the Clarkstown Police Department proudly honors the brave men and women who gave their lives in the line of duty. Signed into law by President John F. Kennedy in 1962, this solemn day is the centerpiece of National Police Week, when thousands of law enforcement officers gather in the nation’s capital to remember and reflect.

Among those standing in tribute this year, the Clarkstown Police Department Honor Guard took part in the National Emerald Society Memorial Service, presenting the colors with precision and dignity.

“It is a solemn privilege to pay tribute to our fallen heroes, honoring their sacrifice and dedication to keeping our communities safe,” the department said in a statement.

National Police Week serves as a powerful reminder of the risks officers take each day in service to their communities. Clarkstown’s participation in the week’s events reflects the department’s deep respect for those who have fallen — and its commitment to upholding their legacy of duty, courage, and service.
