BRTC LETA Holds Ceremony in Honor of September 11

Black River Technical College (BRTC) Law Enforcement Training Academy (LETA) held a flag raising ceremony in honor of 9/11.

Class 2024-B lined in formation and stood at attention in front of the LETA flag poles while the class Honor Guards raised the American and Arkansas flags. The flags were raised to full-mast then lowered to half-mast in remembrance of the ones who lost their lives on September 11.

The LETA class also dedicated their Fallen Officer Memorial. The memorial honors graduated BRTC LETA officers who lost their lives in the line of duty. LETA Director Jared Bassham, LETA instructor Ashley Boles, and retired LETA instructor Steve Shults each gave a word of thanks for the support the program received during the planning and revealing of the memorial.
