1. How can I request Honor Guard or bugler support for funerals and public ceremonies?
The Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Honor Guard's first priority is to provide military funeral honors for active duty members, retirees, and veterans who served honorably in the Air Force. Honor Guard members also provide honors and ceremonial support for certain distinguished persons, changes of command, community events, parades, and patriotic observances.
The Wright-Patterson AFB Honor Guard serves all of Ohio, Kentucky, and certain areas of Indiana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and the lower peninsula of Michigan.
You can call the Base Honor Guard at (937) 257-8964. Requests may be e-mailed to the Flight Support office or faxed to (937) 656-3994. Please be sure to include the following information in all requests: type of ceremony; type of honors requested; date & time of ceremony, who is hosting the ceremony; any other pertinent information regarding the ceremony; and the name, e-mail address and phone number for the point of contact. Please note your faxing a request does not constitute confirmation of support. The Flight Support personnel will contact you to confirm receipt of your request.
