We unapologetically support our 'Thin Line' community.
The colored stripe symbolizes the thin line between the public, and the danger that our responders hold at bay.
* The "thin line" phrase was originally coined in the 1880s signifying the red color of the British Army uniforms.
* The first use of the thin blue line was used in 1911 in a poem by Nels Dickmann Anderson referring to the United States Army.
* In the 1950s, LA Police Dept. Chief Bill Parker coined the term “thin blue line” as the barrier between law and order, and social and civil anarchy.
* By the early 1970s, the term had spread to police departments across the U.S.
* Use of the term became especially widespread following the release of Errol Morris’s 1988 documentary, “The Thin Blue Line.”
In addition to the police, we have added the following 5 other public
service branches which have adopted thin line colors of their own.
