You don’t need a headline. You don’t need applause.
You just need that radio, that vest, and a reason.
And your reason? It’s bigger than fear.

The Massachusetts State Police recently unveiled a permanent memorial in honor of K-9 Frankie, a nine-year veteran and member of the State Police Special Tactical Operations Team, who was killed in the line of duty during a 2022 incident in Fitchburg.
K-9 Frankie gave his life protecting others — a sacrifice that forever changed his handler, his fellow officers, and the community he served.
“This memorial provides an important, dedicated space to celebrate the life of K-9 Frankie and reflect on the enormous contributions of K-9s and their handlers,” said Colonel Geoffrey Noble.
Thank you to all who made this tribute possible. And to K-9 Frankie — your service will never be forgotten.
