SAVES CLUB® Presentation

The Safariland Group SAVES CLUB is made up of individuals, who in the line of duty, experienced a life-threatening incident in which their Safariland armor or gear contributed to saving their lives. Safariland is pleased this year to celebrate the lives of Officer Justin Sanders and Officer William “Taylor” Webb, both officers whose lives were saved in 2019.

SAVE #2065 - Officer Justin Sanders Auburn Police Division, Auburn, AL

Officer Justin Sanders was shot on February 15, 2019 during a stop on a robbery suspect, who opened fire from the passenger seat, then exited the vehicle and continued shooting. Officer Sanders was hit five times – once in the face, twice in the hip and twice on his armor, and his Safariland® Xtreme® XT03 Level II vest stopped both rounds to his torso. After months of physical rehabilitation Officer Sanders returned to duty in late 2019.

SAVE #2067 - Henry County Police Department, McDonough, GA

Officer William “Taylor” Webb responded to an unknown medical call on April 12, 2019. Upon arrival he forced entry to the location in an attempt to render aid to an unconscious woman who was eight months pregnant.  As Officer Webb made entry, a male suspect ambushed him and opened fire hitting him twice, once in the hip and once in the chest on his armor, a  Safariland® Xtreme® XT03 level II vest. Officer Webb is recovering from the wound to the hip.
