Correction[edit]
Re this entry - John William Fordham DC 45 Metropolitan Police 26 January 1985 Stabbed during the Brink's-Mat robbery.
Not "during" - he was actually engaged in a later undercover operation against suspects in that robbery, and was stabbed by one of them (the notorious Kenneth Noye) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brink%27s-Mat_robbery#Arrests

Incorrect formatting in list[edit]
It appears that a different format has been used for some of the later entries into this list. If the list is sorted by date, there are 15 entries that don't sort correctly. Unfortunately beyond my knowledge to correct. 155.190.13.13 (talk) 00:34, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
