EVENT NAME:
Peace Officers Memorial Day
EVENT CATEGORIES:
Career , Safety & Security
United States
Dates Active:
Begins: May 15, 2025
Ends: May 15, 2025

DESCRIPTION:

Peace Officers Memorial Day is a national observance in the United States that pays tribute to local, state, and federal peace officers who have died or received an injury in the line of duty. It is observed annually on May 15 and is part of National Police Week.

The observance began on October 1, 1961, when Congress authorized President John F. Kennedy to designate May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day through a joint resolution (Public Law 87-726).

In honor of the fallen officers throughout the United States, flags fly at half-staff. Various memorial services, candlelight vigils, and other events pay tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C., serves as the focal point for many of these events, featuring the engraved names of over 22,000 officers who have lost their lives while serving their communities since the first recorded police death in 1791.
