On Monday the 4th we held our annual Officer Down Memorial ceremony, this year we honored our 2 CO's that died in the bus crash out near Odessa.
In total we have lost 61 of our own LODD since 1848, most of them surprisingly by gunfire.
It was really nice to see representatives from all the local LE agencies- the city had all available Officers present, Sheriff's Office sent several Deputies and the DPS had Troopers present.
Sometimes people forget that although we work for a large agency, there are 30,000 uniformed CO's for the State, a lot of us knew these guys, they weren't just someone that also worked for the agency.
Most of the local officers around here started off as CO's, so we have a good relationship with them.
