Here’s how to join us virtually or in Washington, DC

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Each year, hundreds of names of officers killed in the line of duty are engraved on the walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC. These names are then read aloud during the annual Candlelight Vigil to memorialize those who made the ultimate sacrifice. This year, 556 heroes have been added to the hallowed walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, which now has 23,785 names forever remembered for their service and sacrifice.
