Honoree: John McCormick was killed in the line of duty on April 27, 1988 when he and four officers executed a search warrant for several pounds of cocaine in a suspect’s fourth floor apartment.  As the raid commenced, the officers broke through the front door and were confronted by the female suspect who had retrieved a 38-caliber revolver.  A struggle ensued for control of the weapon and the suspect, and two officers at the scene, all fired shots.  Sgt. McCormick, who was standing in the doorway, was fatally wounded by one of the shots fired by the officers. (Cohen)
