May 16, 2017 - Senior Airman Coty Taylor
(front) and Senior Airman Andrew Harris, 19th Security Forces
Defenders, respond to a simulated call held in place for Police
Week at Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas. In 1962, President
John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15 as
Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date
falls as Police Week. Currently, thousands of law enforcement
officers from around the world converge on Washington, D.C., to
participate in a number of planned events which honor those who
have paid the ultimate sacrifice. (U.S. Air Force photo by SSgt
