Honor Guard
For any eligible veteran in the county
Our Honor Guard renders military funeral honors for any eligible veteran in the county, at no cost to the family, whether or not they were a member of this post.
Requesting honors
A funeral director can make the request, or the family can contact the post directly. We ask for as much notice as you can give — but we have turned out on a day’s notice before, and we will do it again.
Flag disposal
We conduct a flag retirement ceremony twice a year and accept worn flags at the post at any time. There is a drop box inside the front door.
Joining the detail
The Honor Guard trains one evening a month. You do not need to have carried a rifle since service — most of the detail had not either.
