Honor Guard Unit

The Pinecrest Police Department Honor Guard is a highly trained ceremonial unit available for special events and for providing military honors. The supervisors and officers in this unit are selected from volunteer officers who are willing to train and drill in military protocol and movements. This intensive training includes instruction in the handling and presentation of the colors, flag folding, funeral protocols, and basic military drill and ceremony procedures. The Honor Guard trains regularly to maintain high unit proficiency in a number of highly specialized skills.

The Honor Guard’s uniform consists of a dark blue campaign hat, dark blue Marine Corps style jacket with green trim, dark blue striped trousers, and highly polished leather gear and shoes.

The Honor Guard represents the Pinecrest Police Department at several events in Miami-Dade County especially those recognizing fallen police officers.
