Officers in the Lexington police officers’ motorcycle squad joined others at the nation’s capital on Thursday, May 15, as they escorted survivors, referring to loved ones who are survived by officers who have died in the line of duty. Nationally, this escort is put on by the organization called Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.)
The Lexington motor officers were joined by officers from Los Angeles, Florida, New York, and everywhere in between. On Thursday, the motorcade went to the National Police Officers Memorial, where U.S. Vice President JD Vance was a keynote speaker.
LPD motor squad supervisor Sergeant Gary Thurman said it was an experience he’ll never forget.
“It’s a very humbling experience, especially seeing the children and families of fallen officers from all over the country and watching their faces light up as the motorcycles come through to provide escorts through the capital,” Thurman said.
More information about the organization can be found by visiting the C.O.P.S. website.
