70 years ago today FBI agents Herman Hollis and Samuel Cowley lost their lives serving their
country. Their heroic actions on that day were the highest examples of selflessness in the face of great danger.

Although the world has turned many times since their passing, and with it the face of law enforcement, the common bond of doing one's duty is still as strong today as it was then.

All of our shifts today are dedicated to these great men.

Because of you and your dedication to Law Enforcement, one of the most ruthless criminals of our time finally was stopped. Thank you for all you did and may you rest in peace for eternity. Godspeed my brother.
