On this day in 1975, Sergeant Richard Lee Cloud was assassinated while answering the front door of his home.
Committed to combating organized crime and drug dealing, Sgt. Cloud served as sergeant of the Vice Squad before being relieved of the position in March of that year. He continued his work as part of a federal task force.
In recognition of his sacrifice, Sgt. Cloud was posthumously reinstated to his former position.
Sergeant Cloud, your service will never be forgotten. We honor you today and always.
