Seattle Fire Pipes and Drums has fulfilled that honor, and quite admirably. They led the body of Officer Brenton last year, and while we are deeply grateful to Seattle Fire for what they've done, many officers felt that we should really be leading the way for our own fallen. That was the impetuous to form this band. Officer Gallagher is the one who actually got past the "we should" stage to the "I will" stage and is the driving force behind this.
I'm very excited at the prospect and I'm hoping there are enough like-minded officers and detectives to help shepard the group through it's infancy.
