COUNCIL workers attached to the Bulawayo Fire and Ambulances Services have requested the city council to accord their departed members full military honours similar to those conferred to members of the defence forces.
According to council minutes, the city council’s acting chief fire officer, Linos Phiri on 19 March wrote to the town clerk, Christopher Dube requesting the prestigious national military honours for the departed life and property savers.
“All serving and former commissioned officers who would have attained the position of station officer and above were to have a water tender and an ambulance accompanying a turntable ladder used a hearse from the funeral parlour to a local place where the body would lie in state with pall bearers in full undress gear with caps,” Phiri’s letter reads in part to council.
