One of three Thin Blue Line travel tags in a quest for mileage around the world with three identical tags owned by CelticDave. It is our hope that all of these travel tags will end their quest and return to us on or about 09/11/2016. The final destination will be determined at a later time. Please take and post photos of this travel tag with anything law enforcement related during it's travels.
The term the thin red line was first coined in the 19th century from an expression used by William Russell the Times correspondent during the Crimean war. He used the expression " thin red streak tipped with a line of steel" which was popularised into "the thin red line". It has come to mean in general terms a thinly spread military force holding back the enemy.
The Thin Blue Line is a 20th century adaption of the expression and represents police officers. Traditionally, the police were dressed in blue. This line represents that the police are the only thing standing between peace and law-abiding citizens and total anarchy. It is a very thin blue line.
