This is how we do it LA style!


This is how we do it LA style! With Mike Baird dispatcher New Brunswick PD , New Jersey. His mother recently passed away and had her final wish to be buried at sea off Santa Monica where she grew up. Lots of red tape and bureaucracy prevented the family from their final goodbye, until they contacted LAPES. A police boat was made available so Mike and his sister could say goodbye in accordance with their mother's wishes. The family is now enjoying the memories of a final small act of professional courtesy. Rest In Peace madam!

Fraternal Order Of Police National Pipe Band Competition Third Place



As if representing our fallen brother's and sisters in a Solemn Massed Pipe Band March to the National Police Memorial was not awe inspiring enough, our own Los Angeles Police Emerald Society Pipes and Drums took Third Place in the Fraternal Order of Police nationwide competition in Washington D.C. on May 15, 2013.
The National Honor Guard Competition and Demonstration provides an opportunity for law enforcement organizations to perform ceremonious and patriotic tributes for public viewing. These teams are a highly dedicated group of law enforcement officers that represent organizations from all across this nation and Canada. They converge on the Nation’s Capital every year for National Police Week, where peace officers are honored for their dedicated service to the protection of our communities. The day of May 15th is known asNational Peace Officers’ Memorial Day, a day when the nation honors those officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice. This event is the tribute these teams give to honor our fallen officers and their families.
