Maine Plates Honor 911 First Responders | Portland Maine News

Maine State Police are honoring 9/11 first responders with special commemorative license plates, featuring the Trooper Black Foundation logo to support fallen officers and their families. Displayed on cruisers from Sept 1–14, these plates will then be auctioned off—with all proceeds going directly to the foundation established in memory of Trooper Charles Clinton Black, who died in service in 1964. Colonel William Ross, a former NYPD officer, praised the initiative as a powerful symbol of remembrance and hope, encouraging the public to participate in the auction via the Maine State Troopers Foundation’s website to help keep that legacy alive.
