Mesa Fire Department Honor Guard
The Mesa Fire Department Honor Guard was officially formed in
1996. Since then, this dedicated volunteer group has continued to uphold and
promote the tradition and decorum of the fire service. A
link to video from our most
recent event, IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Colorado Springs, September
2006 is below.
The Mesa Fire Department Honor Guard was originally formed to pay tribute and honor to
Mesa Fire Captain Chuck Inman who lost his life after a noble and courageous
battle with cancer. Captain Inman passed away on December 16, 1996.
Since the inception of the Mesa Fire Department Honor Guard, our size and
recognition has grown. We have been honored to have participated in numerous
local and national events including:
The Mesa
Fire Department Honor Guard is a voluntary association of Professional
Firefighters. We are honored to assist and/or participate in memorial services
for deceased Firefighters throughout the region. Due to the voluntary status of
our members, we are significantly limited in our ability to participate in other
events (such as parades or conference openings).
