The emblem adopted by the National Fraternal Order of Police is designed to remind the membership of the duties that are expected of them as a citizen, a police officer and a member of the lodge. The five-cornered star tends to remind us of the allegiance we owe to our Flag and is a symbol of the authority with which we are entrusted. It is an honor the people we serve bestow upon us. They place their confidence and trust in us; serve them proudly.

* Midway between the points and center of the star is a blue field representative of the thin blue line protecting those we serve.

* The points are of gold, which indicates the position under which we are now serving.

* The background is white, the unstained color representing the purity with which we should serve. We shall not let anything corrupt be injected into our order.

* Therefore, our colors are blue, gold and white.

* The open eye is the eye of vigilance ever looking for danger and protecting all those under its care while they sleep or while awake.

* The clasped hands denote friendship. The hand of friendship is always extended to those in need of our comfort.

* The circle surrounding the star midway indicates our never ending efforts to promote the welfare and advancement of this order.

* Within the half circle over the centerpiece is our motto, "Jus, Fides, Libertatum" which translated means "Law Is a Safeguard of Freedom."
