Honor RollThe Trooper’s Creed
| I am what others did not want to be I went where others feared to go, risk and danger my constant companion. I have seen the face of terror; felt the sting of cold fear and enjoyed the sweet taste of a moment’s love. I have helped people in times of stress and subdued others in times of trouble. |
I have cried, loved and hoped, but most of all have honored my commitment to serve and protect for which I have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the name of service above self. I am a Kentucky State Trooper. |
