2024 Valor Memorial and Wreath Laying Ceremony

CBP comes together each year during National Police Week to recognize and honor employees who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of the American people. National Police Week originated when President John F. Kennedy signed Public Law 87-726, and draws thousands of law enforcement officers from around the world to Washington to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice. CBP conducts the Valor Memorial and Wreath Laying Ceremony during Police Week to honor its fallen employees and add names to the Valor Memorial of CBP employees who died in the line of duty.
CBP has honored its fallen employees since 2003 and continues to honor the fallen of its legacy agencies. The honorees were all uniformed law enforcement personnel until 2020, when CBP began to recognize non-uniformed, non-law enforcement personnel who have died in the line of duty. This inclusion acknowledges their role in the agency’s mission and their dedication to CBP’s core values to our nation -- vigilance, service to country and integrity.
