Every Badge Out There

- I’ve been to several Police Memorials during my years with the Columbia Police Department, but none stands out like the one in 2006. It was the first time I ever heard “Every Badge Out There”. I know when writing the song, Patrolman Jeremy Alsup, wasn’t writing it based on my family, but he might as well been.
While listening to him play the song live, I remember looking across the auditorium and making eye contact with my father and both us being teary eyed.
Each time I’ve listened to it since, thousands of lifelong memories flow through my head: Most are memories that only a child of a law enforcement officer would cherish.
My dad was “Shop with a COP” before there was a “Shop with a COP”. While growing up, dad would get donated toys that needed parts replaced or fixed. After countless hours of working on them, he would load up the old truck and we would drive all over Columbia giving them to underprivileged children at Christmas.
As an elementary aged child, I watched a domestic violence situation take place down the road from where I grew up. I remember seeing patrol officers surrounding the house. I saw my father rush into the back door of the house where the armed person was barricaded inside with a family member. Shortly thereafter, my dad exited the house with the individual under arrest.
I remember having to take vacations out of state so situations could die down at home because someone had allegedly put death threats out on my dad for busting certain people or knowing too much about certain people’s illegal activities.
My father worked 40 to 80 hours a week while I attended Jr. High & high school, but from what I remember he was never too busy or too tired to ever missed one single sport or school activity of mine.
Those are just a few of the childhood memories that come back every time I listen to “Every Badge Out There”
There isn’t a day that goes by that someone at work is not asking me about Frank Duncan or providing a story of him. Some don’t even realize they’re telling these stories to his son.
Thanks for allowing me to share a few cherished memories that this song brings to me.

My dad was killed in the line of duty 2/17/1986 First Chief of Narcotics PPSO I have been a LEO myself for 37 years this song really hits home.
This hit hard on me. I work in Law Enforcement as an armed Security Officer. I wake up every morning and make my kids breakfast. I get ready for work and I kiss them all before I leave. I am proud of what I do
As a cop that just had a son, I love and hate the fact that my son loves my uniform. He is drawn to play with the police cars. I know one day he will probably put on the same uniform and i will never be more proud and scared at the same time.
I know the feeling. My fiancé is a highway patrolman and his son just entered highway patrol school. I worry after every shift until he comes home safe. Now I will soon have a step son following in his daddy and his grandfathers shoes wearing the badge. But I'm so proud of all three of them.
Thank you for your service!
@@lindaashworth4794 Tell them I said thank you for your service.
I'm 61 years old and I am a Marine Corps mother my son spent 13 years in the Marine Corps and did three tours and when he got out he went into the police academy and now he is a deputy sheriff and I'm so proud of him but yet here it is the year 2020 and I've been worried about him since you went into the Marine Corps and then he became a police officer and I worried about that and although he has served this country I've been worried about him since you put on the uniform and now this in 2020 I worry more and more about him and I run across this song and it makes me cry thank you for sharing this with me and us the world and thank you for sharing your memories that also made me cry God bless you and your family and everybody that puts on a badge and Carries a Gun God bless them and protect them
My heart goes out to every police officer, you are our heroes. God bless you and thank you for all you do!! ❤
I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE POLICE!!
Amazing song. Reminds me of the little boy on my bus, his dad is in Law Enforcement, wonderful cop, wonderful little boy!
I pray for both of them.
I'm a cop I come home every day and my son who I love always cry's when I come home safe
My dad isnt a cop but is apart of law enforcement, I worry about him all the time. Especially when we go so long without talking
I don't know you or your father, but from one brother to another... Trust him. I love you both
First heard this at Deputy McCowans funeral. I will never forget it.
A Beautiful song thank you!!! I am not a son but a daughter of a State Trooper and my brother followed in dad's footsteps and as of a few weeks ago so did I. All 3 of us are Troopers, I can remember feeling the way you did when he would go off to work at night. Thank You Again!!! God Bless!!!
Hope you had a good year. Care for yours and you. COI Blackwell
GOD Bless Law Enforcement Officers
Thank them for there service
This hits home. I worry everyday about my little ones suffering because of my choice of profession. It is a calling, but it is a dangerous one at times. It is also tough on the kids of cops since they have to deal with the ridicule of todays anti-police world
I'm a firefighter and in my nearly 22 years of duty I've worked/still working with many great men and women officers that I love and would put my life on the line for, I just came across this song/video and it brought tears to my eyes. "THANK YOU" to each and every person man & woman for bearing the hardships as well as the benefits of our nation's police force's of all categories!!
thank you for your service!!! 🫡
@@amberwilson4620 thank you

Praying to all cops out there. Thank you all.

This song always has me in tears. My father has been an officer ever since I was born. He will be going in to the drop and returning soon. By then I will be in law enforcement by that time. Really beautiful song
Jeff this made me cry. Uncle Frank was always there for me and for everyone in town. You both were there for me when Mom died and I will never forget that as long as I live. You are both a blessing to me and to so many more. Thank you for carrying on what Uncle Frank started. I am very proud of you. Bless you and stay safe. Love you,
Your cousin Beth in Colorado
As a Deputy this hits home, such a beautiful song. With that said I pray my sons decide not to go into law enforcement now days.
MY DAD WAS A MEDIC IN THE MILITARY AND IN CIVILIAN LIFE I'M A SECOND GENERATION FIRST AID MASTER I FOLLOWED IN MY DAD'S FOOTSTEPS
So true and beautiful. My Brother.
I could only imagine to hear your dad on the scanner yelling for back up. That would be so hard!
I remember hearing this on myspace. best police dedication song.
I grew up with a chief for a father. I still remember the insults for being proud of him. But I'm proud, and I pray one day I can become an officer to make him and myself proud
be safe to all law enforcement across the nation Blue heart 💙
Wow. Fabulous song. Been doing this job a long time. I get discouraged sometimes, it's things like this song that make me reflect and help keep me doing what I do.
I tried writing back, but kept deleting it because I don't know how to put it into words correctly. So I am just going to say, that there are people who support you- they may not come up to you in public and say it but trust me there are more people who support you than the haters, always remember that.
Beautiful Song.
Back the blue 💙
When you go to work be careful please
Thank you for keeping us safe sending prayers to all 💜🌷🍦🌷💚
Beautiful ❤
I love this song

This shit hit different. I’m wanting to become a cop and one of my baby sisters wanna follow…. I know what it’s like out there and while I’m honors that they look up to me, of course I want her safe.
Amen.
I back the blue 💙 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This song brought me to tears your father sounds like he was one hell of an officer an officer who I would proudly serve beside the song itself reminds me of my uncle bill he was a Vietnam POW then he came home and became an officer with the St Matthews police dept in Kentucky he's one of a few inspirations for me to join the force in a few months when i turn 21 I've been practicing to go into the police force my uncle served 25 years in the dept made his way to hostage negotiator until one day he was called to a barricaded suspect turned out the suspect went nuts raped his wife and kids when my uncle found that out he jumped across the table and beat the guy up pretty bad ended up going into a coma and dying he was reassigned to the narcotics unit he was one hell of a man like your father may god bless them and watch over them until we meet again
Sounds like a damn good man.

I like it a lot
I have a friend in law enforcement
I've got a son who loves his daddy
and he's well aware I wear a badge
he loves my work clothes my patrol car
blue lights that he ask if he can have
one day I was called to talk to my little boy's third grade teacher
I walked in and said what's he done today?
with the tear in her eyes she handed me his journal
Said he wrote this morning's entry at the bottom of the page
he wrote
Im scared
Im worried
why does my daddy have to wear a gun to work
will someone hurt him?
take him away from me?
do me this favour God and I wont say a word
not just my daddy im not selfish
but please take care of every badge out there
as he got older he was drawn to
that shiny badge like a moth into the flame
Ten codes and scanner staying up late
listening for my number or my name
till one night on the radio
he heard his daddy screaming
We need help and backup right away
and in a panick that young man fell down on his knees
and he prayed
Dear God im scared im worried
why does my daddy have to wear a gun to work?
will someone hurt him?
take him away from me?
do me this favour God and I wont say a word
not just my father im not selfish
but please take care of every badge out there
I've got a son who knows hs daddy love him
its no surprise to anyone
he was sworn in in monday
they gave him his own badge and his gun
oh God im scared im worried
why does my little boy has to wear a gun to work?
will someone hurt him?
take him away from me?
do me this favour God and I wont say a word
not just my little boy im not selfish
but please take care of every badge out there
no nut just one
but everyone
who wears a badge out there...
Playing for all cops
r.i.p mb
I'm going to the academy in January
❤❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️
🖤💙🖤
Song is not on iTunes.. best way to obtain it ??
Bob Baumgartner this is the only remaining upload of the song.
@@autumnalsup703 that's too bad.
@@autumnalsup703 it is possible to copy the file from youtube in order to have a copy if need it.
@@1776Blue google "TH-cam downloader" it has been awhile since I have used one, and they tend to disappear as it is possible to use them steal content so I do not have a recommendation. You could also a double male 3.5mm cable (headphone jack size) to hook deviced together and play the song on one device and use something like garage band to record it on the other device (ipad, macbook..)
I am security officer and there time I worry about me and my fellow security officer in this crazy world anymore all they have to see is badge doesn't matter what it says
we under state of emergency im scared im worried why my daddy got to wear gun to work tell him will someone hurt himt ake him away from me demon killed my partner stay distance now i dont trust you all no more im sorry this was me as a kid when i use to date you
❤🤍💙
