On Armed Forces Day, we recognize the men and women of the United States Armed Forces for their service, sacrifice, and commitment to our nation.
We also acknowledge the Sergeants who have served in uniform—both in the military and in law enforcement—and who continue to lead with honor and dedication.

Today, we pause to honor the peace officers who gave their lives in the line of duty and to remember the families, friends, and colleagues who carry their legacy forward.
Their sacrifice will never be forgotten, and their service remains woven into the history of the profession they so proudly served.
Fidelis Ad Mortem.

SBA Vice President Edmund Small joined fellow riders with Law Enforcement United Honor 37 (@honor37_ny ) on a journey from Ground Zero to Washington, D.C. during National Police Week — a ride rooted in remembrance, sacrifice, and support for the families of fallen officers.
This year, the names of eight NYPD Sergeants will be added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, ensuring their sacrifice and leadership are forever etched among the heroes remembered in our nation’s capital:
Sergeant Ercan Aydin

Along the route and throughout Police Week were moments shared with surviving family members, clergy, friends, and fellow members of the law enforcement community — all gathered to honor those whose service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Today, we recognize the women who lead with strength, compassion, and unwavering dedication—both at home and on the job.
