The Honor
Legion
of
the
Police Department of the City of New York
Fidelis Ad Mortem
The Honor Legion, founded in 1900, is the oldest Fraternal
Organization in the New York City Police Department.
The
Honor Legion is composed of members of the Police Force of the City
of New York, comprising all ranks, who during the history of the
Honor Legion have received Department recognition and have been
awarded medals of Honorable Mention for deeds of valor performed at
imminent risk of life or who have been commended for meritorious
acts at personal risk, and who are entitled to wear the insignia of
their Department.
It holds
in one great bond of comradeship the Honor Members of the
Department, the Finest of the Finest. It recognizes no rank. It is
a force within a force, a tower of strength to combat evil; an
inspiration from within, a beacon of hope for the weak, a leaven for
good. Its tenets: self-respect, courage, loyalty and devotion to
duty.
The
underlying purpose of the Organization is to render aid and comfort
to the survivors of the Members of Service who have made the supreme
sacrifice in the performance of their duty: (Fidelis Ad Mortem).
This
purpose is carried out by the Members of the Honor Legion with the
thoughtfulness of mind that there but for the grace of God go I.
The
Honor Legion is a Fraternal Organization which through social
functions fosters comradeship and brotherhood recognizing no
ethnicity or religious differences.
