Oklahoma United States Marshals Posse

PURPOSE

   As part of the Bicentennial anniversary of the United States Marshals Service, Posses have been formed in Oklahoma, California, Arizona and Wyoming.

   The U.S. Marshals Posse is a private Organization horning the U.S. Marshals Service which had it's first 13 Marshals appointed by President George Washington in 1789.

   These Posse Members are not employees of the U.S. Marshals Service and have NO Law Enforcement authority.

   Posse Members are primarily equestrians who sit tall in the saddle, proudly promoting the nation's oldest law enforcement agency.

   The objective of the Posse shall be to cooperate with the U.S. Marshals Service in rendering such Non-Law enforcement assistance as may be required when called upon and to promote the U.S. Marshals Service at large.

   We have participated in parades, dedications, trail rides, and provided local support and assistance in fund raising for other non profit organizations.  We are currently working on forming a mounted search and rescue unit, for the State of Oklahoma.

   Some Posse members are lending their help and support to the construction of the Historic United States Marshals Memorial, now being built in Oklahoma City.
