Publix commemorates Peace Officers Memorial Day
May 14, 2024
Each year on May 15, we recognize Peace Officers Memorial Day as part of National Police Week. This observance began in 1962 to honor local, state and federal law enforcement officers who have lost their lives or become disabled in the line of duty.
As a mark of solemn respect, President Joe Biden has ordered the U.S. flag to be flown at half-staff through sunset today. Publix will fly flags at half-staff at all support locations.
We are thankful for all law enforcement officers who answer the call to serve and protect us.
