What do these heroes have in common?
2004: Took a grenade from a robbery suspect and held it while he waited over 20 minutes for a bomb disposal unit.
2005: Stopped a deranged gunman at a nightclub.
2006: Rescued a wounded fellow officer while a gunfight raged around them.
2007: Taught firearm training for sixteen years, and won the NPSC nine times.
They were all recipients of the NRA Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award -- one way we honor the men and women who put themselves on the line every day to keep our communities safe.
Nominations for the 2008 NRA Law Enforcement Officer of the Year are due in by September 1. The award was established in 1993, and recognizes exceptional valor, public service, and dedication to the principles of our Constitutional heritage.

Congrats and deep thanks to all the officers who won awards and to the competitors who participated or were nominated. It's an awkward time, either the NRA is making videos about LEO malfeasance in places like New Orleans or giving them workshops, training and awards. Much better for everyone when it's workshops, training and awards.
Here's to the men and women who swear to uphold the Bill of Rights and defend it from all enemies, foreign and domestic!
