National Fallen Firefighters Memorial

Each October, a grateful nation honors its fallen fire heroes during the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend. Rich in fire service tradition, the Weekend celebrates how these brave men and women lived and what they represented in their communities.

Thousands of people attend the private and public events held on the campus of the National Fire Academy in Emmitsburg, Maryland. The campus is easily accessible, located near the historic Gettysburg, Pennsylvania National Park.

Fire service personnel from across the country volunteer to serve as family escorts and assist with weekend activities.

Hundreds of Honor Guard members join together in a show of respect to their fallen comrades and their families. It is a Weekend that reminds everyone of the very special bond shared by the fire service family.
