By Dana ThornburyDLA Land and Maritime Public Affairs

                COLUMBUS, Ohio  –

According to policeweek.org, in 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation that designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week.

##                 Gregory Adams                            Defense Logistics Agency Police Officer Gregory Adams started at the Defense Supply Center Columbus six months ago. He joined the force to help people.            SHARE IMAGE:Download ImageImage DetailsPhoto By: Charles MorrisVIRIN: 190423-D-LC637-200Meet Gregory Adams 

Police Officer

**How long have you been a police officer?**6 months

**How long have you worked for DSCC?** 6 months

**Why did you decide to become a police officer?** I’ve always enjoyed helping people. I’m tired of seeing police officers portrayed in a negative light, and I’ve personally wanted to help change that narrative.

**What is the most rewarding part of your job?** The most rewarding thing about my job at DSCC is making peoples days a little brighter, whether that’s a surprise happy birthday or picking a random child and making them an honorary officer for the day. I also enjoy interacting with kids at the MWR Child Development Center.
