We are extremely proud of our Honor Guard.  

Our post-Honor Guard is made up of about 30 volunteers.

They are America’s Veterans; They have Served throughout the World, both in times of Peace and in War.  Some of them have Served in Combat; Some of them did not. Some of them Served only briefly; while some of them Served 30 years or more. Some of them Served in World War II; others  Served in Korea, Vietnam, Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, Desert Storm, Iraq, and Afghanistan. They Served in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard.

They are the Older Brothers of those Serving on Active Duty, in the Guard, and in Reserve today. Now, they are “Civilians – Continuing Our Service”. They are American Legion Post 104’s “HONOR GUARD”, right here in Sevierville.

“HONOR GUARD” – Why is it called Honor Guard?

The answer is quite simple. We “HONOR” ALL THINGS pertaining to SERVING our Great United States of America. We believe America, although not perfect, is “OUR COUNTRY” – Right or Wrong!

What does Our Honor Guard do?

The “DUTY” we are most proud of is providing the last Tribute to America’s Fallen Veterans; We provide “Military Funeral Honors Graveside Services” for all Veterans whose Family requests this of us.

In addition to this, Our Honor Guard participates in numerous other Patriotic activities throughout Sevier County, and in the adjoining Counties. We work with Churches, Schools, Government entities, Businesses, other groups, and individuals.

We do ALL these things because We “STILL” Love America, and We Love America’s Veterans. There are many other things that We do, and Want to do, that support Americanism and America’s Veterans. While We perform all of these things without any personal compensation, and free of charge, We do occasionally receive contributions from families, other organizations, or groups.

We use these funds to cover the cost of the work that we do. Being a NON-PROFIT organization, “We Spend” what “We Raise” on issues of “Need” right here in Sevier County. Just two of these issues are College Scholarships for local Children and assistance to our fellow Veterans who need a little help.

When a Military Funeral Honors Service is scheduled, it is announced on our Post (ANNOUNCEMENTS). After it is completed, details are recorded on the (MEMORIALS). Other activities & events we do are recorded on the (RECENT HISTORY).

We would be happy to show you some of the things We do. Let us know if We can be of any Service to you.
