Point 27 Honors Fallen Oswego Co. NY Deputy Sheriff Cailee Campbel

ATLANTA, GA – Global nonprofit Point 27 https://point27.org/ recently honored fallen Oswego County Deputy Cailee Campbell who died September 25 in a vehicle crash while responding to an auto accident call in the county.

Point 27 sent gifts of scripture-inscribed Thin Blue Line Shields of Strength dog-tag necklaces to the Oswego County Sheriff’s Office for Campbell’s partner and the deputies  serving closely with her  and scripture-inscribed Folded Flag Pendant Keepsake Necklaces for her family.

Based in Atlanta, Point 27 is headed by US Army (Ret.) Col. David Dodd. “It is tragic that this deputy and her family sacrificed so much,” Dodd said. “We salute their courageous and selfless commitments to service and sacrifice.”

“In these days when so many are publicly attacking, criticizing and questioning law and rescue officials, we remain resolutely dedicated to sharing God’s Word with them and their families to encourage them and to show appreciation for their sacrifice and service. We want them to know we value them, God loves them, and they are never alone” Dodd said.

The face of the Thin Blue Line Shield of Strength shows an engraved silver American flag face designed with one flag stripe of blue. The back of the dog tag is inscribed with Matthew 5:9,” Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” The design and scripture were chosen by law enforcement officers.

The Folded Flag Pendant necklaces are engraved with John 15:13; “Greater love has no one than this; to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”

Dodd first founded Point 27 to honor members of the military, fallen members of the military and their families. In 2016–at the request of the law enforcement community–Point 27’s outreach expanded to include gifts of the Thin Blue Line Shields of Strength for law enforcement officers.

Since its founding in 2014, Point 27 reports gifting more than 762,935 scripture-inscribed Shields of Strength to members of the military, first responders and law enforcement officers; bereaved families of fallen first responders and Gold Star Families of fallen military members.

Dodd commanded a battalion of the first troops deployed to Afghanistan following 911. He wore a Shield of Strength dog tag inscribed with Joshua 1:9 next to his government-issued dog tag; and equipped each of the soldiers in his command with a Shield of Strength before they deployed.

Dodd served 27 years and four deployments in the military. After his military retirement, he founded Point 27, in 2014, to share the scripture-inscribed dog tags that encouraged him and his troops, with members of the military and veterans.
