Any time of the year, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial is a beautiful – and historically significant – place to visit. The Memorial’s walls are filled with law enforcement heroes who, while not always household names, played important roles in U.S. history nonetheless. Officers such as:

🔷 J.D. Tippit of the Dallas (TX) Police Department, who stopped and was gunned down by Lee Harvey Oswald on November 22, 1963, just minutes after Oswald had shot President John F. Kennedy. Officer Tippit’s actions helped lead to Oswald’s capture a short time later.

🔷 James W. Bell, Robert Beckwith, James Carlysle, George Hindman, Robert Olinger and Sheriff William Brady – all murdered between 1878 and 1881 by William H. Bonney, the notorious outlaw known as “Billy the Kid.”

🔷 The 72 brave men and women who died in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 – the deadliest day in U.S. law enforcement history.

Learn about these stories and other law enforcement heroes during your visit to the Memorial. The Memorial is open 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. There is no charge to visit the Memorial.
