These are the stories of the American Police Veterans.
America made a promise to take care of those that have protected America. That promise wasn't broken. It was empty words. Some of those words were turned into laws, where they were ignored. America Thinks that retired and disabled law enforcement officers are living large at the expense of the taxpayer. Read their stories. Then decide for yourself. Who is paying the ultimate price for safe American communities.
American Police Veterans has a Patch design. The new Policevet's USA logo represents the themes American and Beyond the Shield into an exciting new image incorporating the police veteran's shield into the fabric of America's history and experience.
The Policevet's USA patch design is available on gifts and apprael in the Policevet's xCOPshop at Cafepress.
A shoulder patch will be available at a future date.

I am a former police officer with the Savannah-Chatham Metro Police Department in Savannah Georgia, I had 12.5 years of service when I was injured in the line of duty saving not only my fellow officer's life but a suspect's life as well. When my department found out that my injuries would prevent me from returning to duty, they fired me.There has got to be away that police officers such as I can receive medical retirement if they are injured in the line of duty.
