Madison Police officers receive huge donation and cards of encouragement from across the country

Madison officers display some of the cards and letters of encouragement from across the country.

MADISON – The men and women of the Madison Police were overwhelmed with appreciation this week after a huge donation was made to the department. Lockheed Martin and Operation Gratitude teamed up to deliver over 300 pounds of personal care items and goodies to the officers. The boxes were full of Girl Scout cookies, candy, coffee, hand cream, lip balm, nutritional supplements, and a pile of other goodies. But the best part, says officers, were the letters and cards of thanks and encouragement from all over the country.
