Hey Brother, this is the link for the Seattle Firefighters Honor Guard. Contact through the Seattles Bravest Charity, and I am sure they can put you in contact with someone who should be able to help you. If not, let me know, and I will see what I can do!

Ok you have paper. Do you have any of your members former military? They can be of great assistance to you. Half of our honor guard is former military, me being one of them. We have a few minor differences in how and what we do but we work it out amongst us.
Most of the movements, formations, situations can be found in the military manuals. Go to a GI surplus store and they will have book plus video.
We do not have video but I would be willing to help with what I can. Good luck.
