- Every summer between Memorial Day and Labor Day, millions of visitors flock to the monuments and memorials on the National Mall in Washington DC. Among those responsible for keeping them safe, are the mounted officers of the U.S. Park Police, one of the country's oldest police equestrian units. From Presidential Inaugurations to political demonstrations, mounted officers help provide crucial crowd control and traffic management. But they also play a role in community policing, keeping the Nation's Capital and its visitors safe, while serving as goodwill ambassadors to the public.
We spent a day with Officer Chester West, a U.S. Army veteran, and for the last seven years, a member of DC's Horse Mounted Unit. This is his story.
That is a drop-dead-gorgeous horse.
Saw one of the mounted patrol units at the National Mall when I went to D.C. God bless all officers and their noble steeds.
My dream job
What a wonderful horse! And a very personable policeman! I also love Stubben saddles!
This is great! A good idea that is positive in so many ways! Dcpd could learn a lot from this having horse patrol in the city to stop crime and be a good 👍 ambassador to the residents!
Wow! I'd love to have your job. Good for you for changing it up and riding the horse. Lovely steed!!!
What a great representative of the mounted group to portray! Very enjoyable!
It’s like having a patrol car that is also your best friend...with the downside that your patrol vehicle will run away if you get into a shooting..
Tbh it's better to have the horse flee, it's size will just make it a bigger target.
Delilah is gorgeous and you can tell he loves her
That white horse is just gorgeous
She's grey but I still agree she's gorgeous x
What a gorgeous mare

But has to wear a vest because he's so scared. Th horse
The horse, he'll be fine.
Where are the homeless going to hang out for the winter and hang out and sleep right now
I don’t exactly want to be mean or anything, but the horse is too much responsibility. A bike would be a lot better. THATS JUST ME
The police mounted unit should be PERMANENTLY banned from every police department. It is outdated and no longer necessary with advance technology now available.
