Thankfully our soldiers don't think that way.
You know it is entirely different.
1. It is rare anymore for US Soldiers to be fighting in the same neighborhood as their families.
2. In Europe for example there were extensive and detailed plans to fly US Families out of Europe en-masse if things hinted at becoming serious. That included drills,special documents and rehearsals of all aspects. So the Military takes the issue very seriously.
3. If we made such arrangements for Police families our citizens would quite rightly say if such plans are needed they should be made for all citizens not just a selected few. Peace Officers are employees, civilians (by law). They are civil authorities with unions and a great many other issues that impact what can and cannot be done for their families.
Should there be an evacuation plan for families of Peace Officers and Public Officials.... touchy subject.
I think if they are evacuated to a central point in the same community, that would pass the smell test. Say some NG Armory or a Convention Center which can then be used a base of operations for civil authority. Then they are not immune from all hazard but they will not be successfully targeted either. If they are integrated into the civil defense apparatus and doing productive work that would also be justified.
