The terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001, caused more law enforcement line of duty of deaths than any other single incident in American history.
In all, 72 officers were killed during the attacks and dozens more have passed away in the years since as the direct result of illnesses contracted while working in the hazardous conditions immediately following the attacks in New York.
Today, we honor the law enforcement officers, representing 10 different agencies, who died as a direct result of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"Freedom itself was attacked this morning by a faceless coward, and freedom will be defended... We will not waver; we will not tire; we will not falter, and we will not fail. Peace and Freedom will prevail." - George W. Bush

#neverforget #fopstrong
Brothers and sisters, it is with a heavy heart and a deep sadness that we announce the passing of one of our PWTC family. MPD Officer Michael Ashley passed away yesterday due to injuries sustained during a motorcycle accident last Fall.
Officer Ashley served in the United States Marine Corps prior to joining the Metropolitan Police Department, where he would become a full time officer on the Gun Recovery Unit.
In addition to his full time job with MPD, Officer Ashley was also a member of our PWTC staff where he served as one of our security team members. He was a great man, a great leader, and was always ready to lend a helping hand. He will be missed tremendously.
Officer Ashley is survived by his wife, two sons and daughter. Please keep them all in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Rest easy, Mike.
Happy Independence Day weekend! Stay safe and stay healthy!

Tonight, thousands of officers, survivors, and supporters will watch our virtual Candlelight Vigil to respect, honor, and remember our fallen law enforcement heroes. Since we cannot gather in person, we’ve set a goal to light 22,217 virtual candles, one for each name engraved on the Memorial walls. Please show your support today by lighting a virtual candle with your donation. #UnitedByLight

In alignment with the decision from the office of the National FOP, COPS, and other partner organizations, unfortunately, we are unable to host Police Week Tent City 2020. This was a very tough decision, but we believe it is the right one.

“The FOP and its Auxiliary will be unable to host the 39th Annual National Peace Officers’ Memorial Service in Washington, D.C. due to the #COVID19 pandemic. This decision was a difficult one, but we believe it is the right one.”

In alignment with National FOP, we are closely monitoring the current situation relating to COVID19. The rumors that National Police Week and the surrounding events such at PWTC have been cancelled are false. We are still a go at this time. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we continue to work through this situation.

From National FOP President Pat Yoes via email on 03/10/2020:
POLICE WEEK:
“Many of you may have heard the rumors that Police Week is going to be canceled. This information is false and we need your help in clarifying this. I have a teleconference scheduled this Friday between COPS and the FOP to discuss Police Week activities. At this time, there are no plans to cancel Police Week, we will however be asking everyone to follow basic good health procedures and if you feel your personal health may be at risk we will understand you not being there.” - Pat Yoes
