Officer Down Memorial Page

I recently retired to Nashville Tennessee after 21 years. While sitting in a barber shop with my two sons and daughter, a gentleman approached. He thanked me for my service. I was wearing a police shirt with American flag with a blue stripe and Eagle Globe and Anchor. I thanked him for the words and then the the Gentleman became emotional. He told me that his Nephew was Sean Bolton. That Sean was a former Marine that survived Fallugah, one of the toughest battles Marines had fought since Chosin Reservoir. He left the Corp and decide to continue his service to his nation as a police officer. I learned that Sean was a cop, a down to earth cop that the bad guys feared. His uncle proudly told me that Sean had made over 100 firearm arrest that year he was killed. His uncle was proud but also still full of grieve. I felt his grief and pray that his family finds some solace. I thank him for sharing Sean's life with me and asked him to thank his family for his service. Semper Fi brother rest easy you did your duty.
