The Shawnee Police Department Honor Guard was established to represent the department, it’s members, and their families at police funerals, parades and other ceremonial occasions-both solemn and festive. The goal of the unit is to render honors, preserve tradition, stimulate Esprit-de-corps, and instill pride.

The Honor Guard exists to pay respect and to give honor to those who serve in exemplary fashion, and more importantly, to remember those whose lives were dedicated to the service of their community.

The Honor Guard is a self-sufficient unit that trains together as a flexible and disciplined team. The Honor Guard personifies professional decorum, respect, and strives toward perfection in presentation and display of The Colors of the State of Oklahoma and The United States of America.

The Honor Guard performs at public functions to include:

1. Parades
2. Burials of Police Officers
3. Holiday Observances
4. Other Public Exhibitions as deemed appropriate.
