IAFF-affiliated Pipe & Drum Bands and Honor Guards throughout the United States and Canada, have participated in every IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The IAFF Pipes & Drums and Honor Guard website provides opportunities for our members in bands or honor guards to assist not only with our Memorial Service, but with memorial services, holiday parades and educational events hosted by IAFF Locals and fire departments throughout the U.S. and Canada. More importantly, these members may be available to assist in the event of a line-of-duty death if requested.
