On Aug. 23, 2014, U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz's emergency services directorate held it's National Night Out event, together with the USO Sun and Fun event, at Pulaski Park, on Pulaski Barracks in Kaiserslautern, Germany.

 

Begun in 1984, National Night Out is a community-police awareness-raising event. It now involves over 37.8 million people and 16,124 communities from all fifty states, U.S. Territories, Canadian cities, and military bases worldwide.

 

Families had the opportunity to learning about fighting crime and what they can do support local law enforcement. There were working dog demonstrations, child ID kits, crime prevention programs and activity tables. The best part, young people got a chance to meet military police and garrison firefighters, plus Sparky the Fire Dog and Daren the Lion.
