National Police Remembrance Day – Honoring Police Officers

September 30, 2013

Last Friday, we paused to honor officers who lost their lives while performing their duty as a police officer, or through illness or other circumstances.

The Police Ode
As the sun surely sets, dawn will see it arise.
For service above self demands its own prize.
You have fought the good fight; life’s race has been run,
and peace, your reward, for eternity begun.

And we that are left shall never forget.
Rest in peace, friend and colleague, for sun has now set.
We will remember, we will remember.
Hasten the dawn.

National Police Remembrance... Continue Reading

Four teams took part in the two-day collaboration event, including representatives from Tait partners Zetron, Avtec, Higher Ground, Exacom, and Droidworx.

In just two days, the teams managed to create truly compelling demo applications that showcased the flexibility of the Tait API and their innovations. Continue Reading
