Tartan Details - Greater St Louis Area Firefighters Highland Guard

Reference: 10336 Designer: Brown, Jonathan Tartan date: 08/12/2010 Registration date: 7 January 2011 Category: Corporate Restrictions: Yes. To be worn by members in good standing of the Greater St Louis Area Firefighters Highland Guard Registration notes: This tartan will be worn by members of the Greater St Louis Firefighters Highland Guard in memory of Firefighter-Paramedic Ryan Hummert of the Maplewood Missouri Fire Department. Firefighter-Paramedic Ryan Hummert was killed in the line of duty on the 21st July 2008 when a lone gunman ambushed emergency responders by setting a vehicle on fire and opening fire on firefighters and police officers when they arrived at the scene. Many of the band members were also involved in this call and the subsequent funeral and memorial services honouring Ryan. The Guard is honoured to design and wear this tartan in Ryan's memory. The tartan uses traditional fire department colours: red, black, and gold are used in many fire department colour schemes and are considered traditional fire service colours; charcoal grey was added to provide contrast and is symbolic of smoke. Woven Sample: A woven sample of this tartan has been received by the Scottish Register of Tartans for permanent preservation in the National Records of Scotland. Registrant details: Mr Jonathan Brown, Station Works North Street, Forfar, Angus, Scotland, DD8 3BN [email protected]
