Note from the publisher: Heroes of the Community Honored by Spokane Police Department Members of the Spokane Police Department were recognized for their dedication to the community at a special ceremony held on Friday night. Assistant Chief Mike McNab and Detective Tony Lamanna were presented with the SPD’s Medal of Merit awards for their exceptional service and commitment to Honor Flight, a local charity that provides flights to Washington D.C. for combat veterans.

The event, held at the Ruby Theatre, drew an audience of community members and officials to celebrate the selfless work of these law enforcement officers. The ceremony began with a fitting tribute to the heroes of the night – Assistant Chief McNab, a veteran of the U.S. Army, and Detective Lamanna… a decorated law enforcement detective.

Their hard work and dedication to protecting the community were highlighted by the impressive stories of the veterans they have flown to Washington D.C. Each year, hundreds of veterans are unable to make the trip due to medical and financial barriers, and Honor Flight steps in to fill this gap. The heroes of the evening demonstrated their unwavering commitment to bringing hope and healing to those who have served our country and deserve a chance at a brighter future.

“The officers have made extraordinary sacrifices in their service to our community,” stated Police Chief Jim Walsh. “Their dedication to Honor Flight is truly commendable… and their stories serve as an inspiration to all of us.” The evening was not only a celebration of the police department’s achievements but also an opportunity for the community to come together and show their appreciation for the selfless work of these officers.

Special thanks were extended to sponsors of the event, including KHQ and Craven’s Coffee, who were present to offer additional support for Honor Flight and the community. **NonStop Local KHQ** is a proud sponsor of Honor Flight and actively contributes to their mission of providing free flights to combat veterans.
