Having been part of the NSW Police Force myself many years ago, I have a lot of brothers and sisters who are still serving our community and keeping our streets safe. Each year, the 29th September holds a special significance for Police throughout Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa and the Solomon Islands. It is a day for police to pause to honour officers whose lives have been cut short while performing their duty as a police officer. This important day is also a time to remember police officers who have lost their lives through illness or other circumstances. Remembrance Day asks people to remember the high and tough calling's Police make for our community and country. On Friday the 27th of September we honour those members of the NSW Police Force who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the execution of their duty. The NSW Police Force has a ribbon that provides an opportunity for employees and the public to show their support for National Police Remembrance Day. They have made an electronic version of the ribbon available for those people who wish to show their support via their Facebook profile picture. Please note that National Police Remembrance Day is an annual event that is traditionally observed on 29 September. With that date falling on a Sunday in 2013, National Police Remembrance Day and all related services will be held on Friday 27 September.
