United States Secret Service Golf Tournament

On Friday, October 20, 2006, the United States Secret Service Uniformed Division Benefit Fund hosted their 1st Charity Golf Tournament at the Fairfax National Golf Course. The Secret Service Uniformed Division, initially a force comprised of a few members of the military and the Metropolitan Police Department, began formalized protection of the White House and its grounds in 1860. This unit was under the direction of the White House Military Aide until 1922 when President Warren G. Harding prompted the establishment of a White House Police Force. Officers of the Uniformed Division carry out their protective responsibilities through special support units (Countersniper, Canine Explosive Detection Team, Emergency Response Team, Crime Scene Search Technicians, Special Operations Section, Magnetometers) and a network of fixed security posts, foot, bicycle, vehicular and motorcycle patrols. The White House Police Benefit Fund was established on September 9, 1946.
