Spreading the word on this project.
This is a contribution funded documentary written and directed by Sergeant Thomas Marchese from the Soledad Police Department in CA. The aim is to raise awareness for the brothers and sisters who had been lost and the legacies that they had left behind.
From the website:
There are plenty more videos including production diaries filming different agencies across the US, Police Week, and other events.
I'm simply passing this on. My order arrived and I will display the items proudly.

From the website:
Between 2009 and 2011, line-of-duty officer killings in the US rose a staggering 42%, with overall officer deaths increasing over 60%. Not only were more officers being murdered, more and more were being targeted, ambushed, and slain in numbers. Although 2012/2013 saw a welcome decline, the numbers rose again in 2014, and the number of officers slain is again sharply rising in 2016.
There are countless personal stories going untold beneath these numbers, and these fallen heroes deserve a voice, as do their families, loved ones and partners who are struggling to pick up the pieces these tragedies leave behind.
For the past 3+ years, a production crew comprised of both film industry and public safety professionals has been traveling to police agencies across the country, large and small, urban and rural, candidly interviewing family members, command staff, line officers, city officials and the public in areas that have lost officers. Along the way, they have captured intimate accounts of heroism and loss. Through the words of those who have lived along side these tragedies, these stories will be told.
What makes this project unique is that it is being funded by contributions from the national law enforcement community, along with our extended family and public supporters. Without your continuing support, this film simply could not be made.
Not only will this film serve as an educational snapshot of history, but its raw honesty and intimately candid perspective will serve as a tribute to all those who have sacrificed everything so that we may enjoy the safety and freedoms we all take for granted.
