The Bayonne Police Department's Honor Guard was formed to represent the members of the Bayonne Police Department, its officers and families at police funerals, parades and other ceremonial occasions. Our intent is also to assist all officers and their families during their time of emotional duress from the loss or debilitating injury of their loved one.

The Honor Guard is designed to provide the Bayonne Police Department with a specially trained ceremonial team to render honors, preserve tradition, stimulate Esprit-de-corps and instill pride. The unit accomplishes this by providing guidance and uniformity in the conduct of ceremonies and by establishing a specific sequence of events during those ceremonies.
