Thank you for your service
To the editor:
We wish to publicly congratulate each of the area law enforcement members who were recently awarded medals for their capture of an Iowa man in 2023, suspected of the tragic murder of an Iowa police officer.
This award reminded us that any given day could be a matter of life or death for them. None of them are guilty of stolen valor with this award.
To ensure peace and justice, it is both good and right for a civil society to have strong law enforcement.
So we say to all law enforcement and first responders here and everywhere, with heartfelt sincerity, “Thank you for your service.”
Mark and Martha Santelman
