Caption: Corporal Charles W. Hill, Sr. Memorial Tablet
Additional Description: February 22, 1949 – March 22, 1989. An officer of the Alexandria Police Department slain in the line of duty. Corporal Hill's love and devotion to duty witnessed throughout thirteen years of service were second only to his love and devotion to his family, wife Virginia, and sons Charles, Jr. and Robert. This memorial stands in honor of Corporal Hill and those other officers who have fallen before him in service to this community. The supreme sacrifice made by each of them will never be forgotten. May our thoughts and prayers be with them, their families, their friends and the dedicated officers who continue to serve and protect this city. This monument is in the small park at the foot of King street.
