Here are a few pictures from Officer Matt Tarness who is attending the annual Police Week Ceremonies honoring law enforcement officers around the nation who lost their lives serving their communities. These pictures are of the 2016 Police Unity Tour. This May, there were over 1900 members nationwide who made the trip, and donated almost 2 million dollars to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. The primary purpose of the Police Unity Tour is to raise awareness of Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the line of duty. The secondary purpose is to raise funds for the National Law Enforcement Officer’s Memorial and Museum.
