Join the WI EMS Honor Guard

With EMS services located all over our state, we have a large area to cover. We divided the state into Districts to allow members opportunities to practice and perform closer to home. When a LODD occurs we bring all districts together, thus we drill and dress alike through the association.

​

We are looking for members at all levels of interest to participate in the WI EMS Honor Guard. We need EMS personnel to perform as 

  • Color Guard (flags) and Honor Guard (Rifle barrier) members

  • Bagpiper(s)  and Percussionist 

  • District Directors and District Training Officers

  • Chaplains (District and State Level) (does not need to have EMS license, but helpful)

  • Other volunteers include lawyers, accountants, and other specialized talents needed to maintain a large 501(c)3.

 

No matter your previous experience via the military, high school/college marching bands, flag squads, or none at all, we are looking for talented persons to join. We are a non-profit, it is a volunteer organization with high standards. EMS providers at all levels are welcome to apply, even if retired!

​

Individuals and units already formed, please contact us. Being under our umbrella offers uniformity of services to the fallen, National recognition, tax-exempt status, and more members to support the entire state so that all fallen providers may have dignified final honors. Hope to hear from you soon!
