Policemen Memorial, Herzl Mount

logo is made from a Star of David Herzl

Yeheskel Sahar, first Israeli Police Inspector General, who was an amateur painter, designed the logo of the Israeli Police, which is seen here on the stone that marks the burial site of policemen in Herzl Mount. The logo is made from a Star of David surrounding the Hebrew letter Mem, which is the first letter in the Hebrew word for "police". It is surrounded by olive leaves, which symbolize peace.
