Memorial Day, Remembrance and Honor
In honor of Memorial Day on Monday, May 30, the Orange County Sheriff's Department is sharing, in the attached video, a small portion of the 2016 keynote address given by our Chief of Police, Eric R. Nuñez, at the Orange County Peace Officers Memorial. Chief Nuñez shares about losing his father, Army Sgt. Rudolph Nuñez when Chief Nuñez was just four years old.
Chief Nuñez was contacted by the Orange County Sheriff's Department who asked to use a portion of the recorded speech for their Memorial Day message. Chief Nuñez and the Los Alamitos Police Department are grateful to Sheriff Sandra Hutchens for approving this project and having her outstanding staff put together such a wonderful tribute for our American Military Fallen and their Families this Memorial Weekend.
Thank you to our military men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice in service to our County, and to their families who have had to tragically live without them.
