ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Nov. 11, 2021 – In recognition of Veterans Day, the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) would like to honor and thank our military veterans and their families for their service.

To all those past and present who have taken up the charge to serve our country, NOBLE salutes, honors and remembers the sacrifices made to protect our freedoms. Thank you for all you have done.
