The spirit of the NSW Police Force is exemplified in the sacrifices of the men and women who have laid down their lives in the performance of their duties.

Roll of Honour
This Roll of Honour Roll shows the names of members of the New South Wales Police Force who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the execution of their duty.
This official NSW Police Honour Roll records the name, rank and date which has been accepted as duty-related by the various Commissioners (and Inspectors General) of Police of the day.
Also included on the Honour Roll is the first recorded death on duty of a serving member of any Australian Police jurisdiction.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of policing, this Honour Roll will never be complete.
May these fine officers rest in peace.
Lest We Forget
