Canadian Firefighters Memorial Ceremony - 2014 - part 2 of 5

We had a cloudy day with an overcast sky. The day started out on the chilly side becoming tolerably cool later on. Although the light was not ideal for taking pictures I think they turned out fairly well for the most part.








This is the helmet party rehearsing for the ceremony. The helmet party
is led by a flag bearer with Newfoundland and Labrador's provincial flag.
Following the helmet party is a flag bearer with British Columbia's
provincial flag.

Some people brought their dogs to the ceremony and I just had to
photograph this cutie.

This series of photographs shows the arrival of family members of the
fallen firefighters being honoured at this ceremony arriving by specially
chartered bus.











Here's the Bridgewater Fire Department Band rehearsing before the ceremony.
