The 26th Brazos County law enforcement memorial service was held Wednesday in the American Pavilion at Veteran’s Park.
It was the first service since the death last August of Brazos County Constable Brian Bachmann. He was remembered in remarks from three speakers and with a memorial wreath. Also recognized was Bryan Police Officer Mark Hiatt, who was killed in the line of duty in December 2000, and Bryan Fire Lieutenants Greg Pickard and Eric Wallace, who died last February while fighting the Knights of Columbus Hall fire.
The featured speaker was Brazos County Sheriff Chris Kirk, who just returned from Washington D.C. and the national law enforcement memorial. Bryan Police Chief Eric Buske and College Station Police Chief Jeff Capps also spoke. Capps hosted the service, which you can hear by clicking the link below.
