The New York State
Fraternal Order of Police
Memorial Wall
It is coming to that time of year again when we reflect and honor the names of our law enforcement officers in New York State who have given their all to protect and serve. We will be gathering at the memorial wall located at 911 Police Plaza, (23rd W. John St.) Hicksville, New York, 11801, where we will be commemorating all those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Since 1792 more then a 1,000 names have been added to this wall. Unfortunately, with the passing of our fellow officers, each year we must continue our tradition of remembrance, by adding the names of our fallen heroes who served in the name of justice. In addition to the family and loved ones, we invite fellow officers and several dignitaries, to join us in gathering.
