In 1985, the Washington State Firefighters' Association established Washington's Fallen Firefighters' Memorial Service. A bronzed Maltese cross affixed to a granite cairn denotes the Memorial, located at the Fire Training Academy in North Bend, Washington.

Over the years, the Firefighters' Association and other prominent state fire service organizations have joined together to annually recognize firefighters who have died in the line of duty giving unselfish service to their communities and Washington State.

This year’s service will take place on October 5, 2008, 10:00 a.m., at the Washington State Capitol Rotunda in Olympia. Map of the Capitol Campus may be found at: Capital Campus Map

The annual memorial service coincides with the National Fire Administration Memorial Service, held each year on the first Sunday of October during National Fire Prevention Week.
