Our Ride Marshals are the best of the best. We’re so grateful for their leadership, dedication, and commitment to keeping our riders safe every mile of the journey.

Today, our department mourns the heartbreaking loss of Officer Kristen Yeager, who made the ultimate sacrifice while responding to a call for service on May 29, 2026.

Officer Yeager served our community with courage, compassion, and unwavering dedication. She answered the call to protect and serve each day, placing the safety of others above her own. Her commitment to her badge, her fellow officers, and the citizens she served will never be forgotten.

We ask that you keep Officer Yeager’s family, friends, and our entire law enforcement family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Rest easy, Officer Yeager. Your watch has ended, but your legacy of service and sacrifice will live on forever. We got it from here.

🖤💙 End of Watch: May 29, 2026

The Police Unity Tour, Chapter IX, cycled 254 miles from Philadelphia to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC, climbing about 13,500 feet in elevation. The Tour donated $2.5 million in 2026 to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. Pictured are (L-R) Sergeant Michael Schmidt of PSP Washington, Trooper Shawn Palmer of PSP Beaver, and PSTA Attorney Christopher Cook.

Another amazing behind the scenes team is our incredible break team! They made sure our riders were fueled, hydrated, and ready to keep going.

From setting up break stops to preparing snacks, drinks, and meals, this team works tirelessly throughout the ride to provide nourishment and support to our members. Their hard work, long hours, and attention to detail help keep Chapter 9 moving safely and strongly each day. 🍊🥨💙
