Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.

As we gather with loved ones this Memorial Day, let us take a moment to reflect on the true meaning of this day and honor the heroes who will never be forgotten.

From all of us at the Olivette Police Department, we wish you a safe and meaningful Memorial Day.

A big thank you to East Central Dispatcher Patty Bratcher for stopping by during her annual “Pipe and Dash” in honor of National Police Week.

Patty’s continued support for law enforcement means so much to all of us. We truly appreciate this thoughtful tradition and look forward to seeing her again next year. 💙🚓

Great event and great field trip day for all the pups! Thank you again to our community for all the support! 🐾 🚒 🚓

This week, we pause to honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication of the men and women in law enforcement who gave their lives in the line of duty to protect and serve others.

In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15 as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and designated the week in which it falls as National Police Week — a time to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for the safety of our communities.

The Olivette Police Department proudly honors the fallen officers whose bravery and service will never be forgotten. We also extend our deepest thoughts and gratitude to the families, friends, and fellow officers who continue to carry their memory forward each day.

Their sacrifice will always be remembered. 💙
