Few places better capture the magnitude of the sacrifices made by men and women in law enforcement than the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial here in our nation’s capital. Engraved on that memorial are the names of every fallen officer in our country going back to the year 1850. It has 24,775 names. This week, 363 heroes were added—including three from Tennessee: Hugh Carlen of Putnam County, James Hood of Jonesborough, and Deputy Sheriff Justin Bradford Mowery of Blount County. This week’s candlelight vigil provided a powerful moment to reflect on their sacrifices—and those made by the thousands of other officers on the Roll Call of Heroes. We honor these heroes and their families during National Police Week. See more here
