Bagpiper Profile

Begun  January 13th, 2007 The SMOKE n' Pipes forum was set up as a means to make contact  with  other fire service  Pipe band members  initially in the U.S. and subsequently internationally to begin a documentation process  of the  extreme  growth  of  but not  totally specific to  Fire service and other "Public Safety Pipe Bands"  which include Fire , Police, and Emergency Medical Services personel as members, however for the sake of My sanity exclude "strickly" Police Services Bands  The forum has an active  Line of duty Death section as well as links to several Fallen Firefighter Memorial events both in the States and Canada. as well as regional items and venues of interest massed band events and most importantly a list of active and inactive Bands with links as possible as well as groups who are forming weekly it seems.
