I was proud and moved to participate in opening ceremonies, at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C., commemorating National Police Week. President John F. Kennedy signed the proclamation, in 1962, designating May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day, and establishing the week in which this occurs as National Police Week. It seems another strange and discomforting irony that the president who moved to establish a national day and week to memorialize police officers who have fallen in the line of duty is a president who himself was murdered.

Today, we reflect on the Peace Officers Memorial Day, paying tribute to our brave heroes who've made the ultimate sacrifice. We'll also delve into Idaho's proactive measures against wildfire threats, including the introduction of a closed fire season. We'll take you through the vibrant Farm and Forest Fair 2023, where Idaho's young minds were immersed in the state's natural resources. In the spirit of summer, we'll float down the Portneuf River with Pocatello's outdoor program. However, it's not all smooth sailing - we'll discuss a concerning incident at Fernan Rod & Gun Club, where a local therapist was implicated in a political threat. Through triumphs and trials, we'll explore how Idaho's resilience and commitment to safety echo the enduring spirit of our fallen heroes. Stay tuned!We also take a deep dive into the turbulent political climate of a state, revealing how conflict is marring its tranquility and unity. The episode illuminates the harmful repercussions of this discord on the younger generation and urgently calls for unity, understanding, and respect across political boundaries. Elections are reframed as a democratic journey, not a battlefield, emphasizing the power of collective identity. The narrative champions diversity and envisions a future where the state's natural beauty symbolizes unity rather than conflict. Tune in for this thought-provoking exploration.Story Links:9B Idaho News: https://9b.news/news/2023/05/12flags.htm9B News:  https://9b.news/news/2023/05/08burn_permit.htmBurn Permits Link:  burnpermits.idaho.govIdaho County Free Press:  https://www.idahocountyfreepress.com/community/farm-and-forest-fair-fun/collection_f3f691c8-e932-11ed-ba5a-d7914c6e4499.htmlKootenai County Fair:  https://www.kcfairgrounds.com/p/events/farmtotable#:~:text=May%2016%2D18%2C%202023&text=Stations%20include%20Beef%2C%20Dairy%2C%20Sheep,%22Best%20field%20trip%20EVER!%22Pocatello Chubbuck Observer:  https://pocatellochubbuckobserver.com/2023/05/14/pocatellos-outdoor-recreation-program-announces-portneuf-river-floats-2/Epilogue:As Peace Officers Memorial Day concludes, we remember those who've fallen, their lives echoing through our communities in unseen ways. In Idaho, where nature often ignites its own challenges, measures are being taken to mitigate human-caused wildfires, with students celebrating the Farm and Forest Fair, deepening their understanding of our environment. Meanwhile, Pocatello promotes outdoor recreation, balancing nature's beauty with safety. Yet, as political tensions rise, there's a reminder that our actions shape not only today but the future too. It's crucial we remember: beneath our political affiliations, we are neighbors, friends, family. We are the custodians of Idaho, stewards of our children's future.Sponsor:For your computer repair and computer network needs, call Joe with F1 for Help at (208) 687-0183.  Visit www.f1forhelp.net for more information.

Since the first recorded death in 1786, over 23,000 law enforcement officers in the United States have been killed or died in the line of duty. In 1963, President John F. Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week it falls within as "Police Week". Lancaster County Deputy Sheriff Craig Dodge was killed in the line of duty on March 14, 1987 while responding to a domestic violence call in Hickman, Nebraska. In this episode, Craig's wife Barb Dodge joined the 902 Podcast to share her story. Following the tragedy of Craig's death, Barb became actively involved with Concerns Of Police Survivors, Inc. (COPS), a national organization dedicated to helping police survivors cope, heal, and begin to rebuild their lives. She is a past National President of COPS and was invited to speak at the dedication of the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial in Washington, D.C. Each year during National Police Week in Washington D.C, Barb conducts the seminar "From Victim To Survivor" for new police survivor families. In addition, she is a member of the Nebraska Law Enforcement Memorial Committee which pursues fundraising for the Nebraska State Law Enforcement Memorial and has been an active board member of the Nebraska COPS Chapter.

New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu says the President disrespected law enforcement when he reversed his proclamation ordering flags at half-staff for Peace Officers Memorial Day which this year also falls on Armed Forces Day. The U.S. flag code reads “The flag shall be flown at half-staff on Peace Officers Memorial Day, unless that day is also Armed Forces Day.” Should the flag be lowered anyway as a sign of respect for those in law enforcement who have died or been injured in the line of duty?

President Joe Biden blamed law enforcement for fueling “distrust” in minority communities in his proclamation declaring Peace Officers Memorial Day and “Police Week.”

It was Peace Officers Memorial Day around the country. The Governor has ordered the flag to be lowered for the day. Lee will explain the history of this day and Ryan Carver, Public Information Officer for the Utah State Fraternal Order of Police will explain what this day means to Utah officers.
