Lieutenant Governor oversees proceedings
Police officers who died in the line of duty on the Isle of Man have been formally recognised with two new memorials.
They were unveiled by the Lieutenant Governor yesterday.
One sits outside Police Headquarters, near the flagpole, and the other within the reception of the building.
