Honest in thought and deed in both their personal and official life, they shall be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land and the regulations of their department.

Police officers shall recognize the badge of their office as a symbol of public faith and accept it as a public trust to be held so long as they are true to the ethics of the police service. They shall constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating themselves to their chosen profession - law enforcement.
