Reflections for Patrolman David Ray Brown
Patrolman Brown, it has been 41 years since you were taken from us. New England law enforcement has continued to thrive, learn and become safer due to the traditions and sacrifices you, your family, and many others have made for us. Thank you for your military and 6 years of law enforcement service.

Patrolman Brown,
On today, the 40th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the USMC during the Vietnam War. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Officer Brown, as a recently recognized Line of Duty Death it is an honor to be the first of what will surely be many more to say thank you for your service, both military and police, and to further say that your sacrifice is one that will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren. Rest in peace always sir and may God Bless your family.
