Fox Valley Law Enforcement Awards
|
The purpose of the program is to recognize an outstanding member of the law enforcement community who has served with distinction and devotion. There are no specific standards and the chapter solicits recommendations from our members. The award is usually presented at one of our dinner meetings. |
The award consists of an embossed Law Enforcement Commendation Certificate, a handsome Law Enforcement Commendation Medal and an enameled bar
suitable for wear on a uniform.Click images to enlarge photos. They will auto close in 15 seconds.
