South Australia Police Legacy - Memorial - Honour Roll

We Remember Them

Honour Roll

South Australia Police Legacy is committed to the remembrance of all South Australian police officers who have died while serving the community of South Australia.

On National Police Remembrance Day held 29 September each year, we lay a wreath at the memorial service held at the Police Academy, Fort Largs.

Leading up to this day, we promote Remembrance Day blue ribbons in order to commemorate these brave men and women.
