Officer's Creed

 

I, a member of the California

Highway Patrol, subscribe in word

and deed to the following:

 

To serve the United States of America and

the State of California honestly, and

conscientiously; and fulfill my oath as a

solider of the law; to uphold and

maintain the honor and integrity of the

California Highway Patrol;

 

Be loyal to my fellow officers;

respect and obey my seniors in rank;

and enforce the law without fear,

favor, or discrimination;

 

Assist those in peril or distress, and, if

necessary, lay down my life rather than

swerve from the path of duty;

 

My personal conduct shall at all times

be above reproach and I will never

knowingly commit any act that will

any way bring discredit upon the California

Highway Patrol or any member thereof;

 

To all this I do solemnly pledge my

sacred honor as an Officer of the

California Highway Patrol.
