The Law Enforcement Oath
of Honor
POLICING IS AN HONORABLE PROFESSION full of men and women dedicated to the wellbeing
and quality of life of others, and the Garner Police Department is no exception. We embrace the
Oath of Honor as the basis of our individual and organizational strength and our commitment to the
community. The Oath of Honor is used at all of our public ceremonies to share that commitment with
those we proudly serve:
On my honor,
I will never betray my badge,
my integrity, my character,
or the public trust.
I will always have the courage
to hold myself and others
accountable for our actions.
I will always uphold the Constitution,
my community
and the agency I serve,
so help me God.
Developed by the International Association of Chiefs
of Police Committee on Police Ethics in 1997
