yeah... the silence as dispatch calls out his badge number... than a coworker says he's 10-7 (officially means he's out of service... unofficially means he's deceased)... then the dispatcher reading out the "End of Watch" time

God bless those brave officers who paid the ultimate price serving our country and its citizens! We grieve for those friends and family who knew these officers personally and even though most of us didn't know them personally, I feel as if a piece of our collective heart as a nation is being laid to rest with each officer as well! Your sacrifice is appreciated and your bravery is admirable!

been to a police officer's funeral before where they do the last call, that's a tough a watch

I've witnessed it done for a fireman before. Chilling is the only word to come to mind

Why am I still watching this? It's torturous ... I have no idea how his wife was holding it together when they showed a family shot.
