In the Line of Duty
New Page 2

We honor those who have died doing what we do.

These are our heroes.

 

They stood for a cause; a purpose that we validate
each time we respond to someone in need.

 

These pages are here to credit their heroism

and to learn how to do our job better and if not better,

than with a greater awareness of our own mortality.
