San Bernardino County's Fallen Peace Officers Honored in D.A.'s Video
The Annual Peace Officer Memorial ceremony was May 31, 2012, at the San Bernardino Police station.
The District Attorney has released a video tribute to San Bernardino County's peace officers who died in the line of duty.
"Let us take time to honor our fallen officers, those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of public safety," District Attorney Mike Ramos said in remarks released with the video. "We will never forget. We will always remember our heroes."
The video was produced by the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office, and it features "Amazing Grace" performed by the Beeston Pipe Band.
