July is Law Enforcement Child Month. 💙

Behind every badge is a family that serves too.

Law enforcement children grow up with sacrifices that many people never see. They celebrate birthdays with an empty chair at the table, miss holidays because duty calls, and learn at a young age that a parent’s promise to “be home soon” isn’t always guaranteed.

Yet they show incredible strength, resilience, compassion, and pride. They stand beside their parents through long shifts, sleepless nights, and uncertain moments, quietly carrying the weight of a profession dedicated to protecting others.

This month, we honor these remarkable children…. the heroes behind the heroes. Thank you for your courage, your patience, and the love and support you give every day. Your sacrifices matter, your stories matter, and you are an important part of the law enforcement family.

To every law enforcement child: We see you. We appreciate you. And we celebrate you.

Today, we celebrate the birth of a nation founded on liberty, courage, and the enduring promise of freedom.

As communities across America gather with family and friends, we also recognize the dedicated law enforcement officers, first responders, military members, and public safety professionals who stand watch to help keep our neighborhoods safe.

The National Fraternal Order of Police wishes everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July. May we never take for granted the freedoms we enjoy and the sacrifices made to protect them.

Happy Independence Day from the National Fraternal Order of Police.

It’s the start of National Police Week 2026.

This year, four West Valley officers are riding in the Police Unity Tour in honor of Officer Cody Brotherson, Nathan Lyday, Sgt. Sorenson, and Officer Estrada carrying their memories with them every mile to Washington, D.C.

This year also marks 10 years since Officer Cody Brotherson was taken too soon.

They ride. They remember. They honor. Thank you guys!

As National Police Week 2026 arrives, the members of Garland Fire Department and Tremonton Fire Department find ourselves reflecting with heavy hearts and deep gratitude for two men who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our communities.

On August 17th, 2025, Sergeant Lee Sorensen and Officer Eric Estrada were tragically killed in the line of duty. Their loss forever changed our departments, our cities, and the lives of so many who knew and loved them. They were more than police officers — they were husbands, fathers, sons, brothers, friends, coworkers, and trusted protectors who answered the call to serve every single day with courage, honor, and selflessness.

During National Police Week, our nation comes together to remember the fallen and honor those who continue to wear the badge. This year holds an especially personal meaning for our communities as we remember Sergeant Sorensen and Officer Estrada and the legacy they leave behind.

To honor their sacrifice, one member representing Garland Fire Department and Tremonton Fire Department will travel to Washington, D.C. to stand alongside our brothers and sisters of the Tremonton Garland Police Department during the National Police Week memorial events. It is a tremendous honor to represent our departments and our communities while paying tribute to these heroes among thousands of law enforcement officers and first responders from across the country.

The bond between fire service and law enforcement runs deep. We train together, respond together, stand together in difficult moments, and support one another like family. When one department hurts, we all hurt. The sacrifice made by Sergeant Sorensen and Officer Estrada is one that will never be forgotten by the firefighters, paramedics, dispatchers, officers, and citizens who had the privilege of serving beside them.

Throughout this week of remembrance, we ask our community to join us in honoring their memory. Please keep their families, the members of Tremonton-Garland Police Department, and all first responders in your thoughts and prayers.

Their watch may have ended, but their impact on our communities will live on forever.

Never Forgotten. Always Honored.

End of Watch: August 17th, 2025
