NBC 5 will stream live video coverage of a procession for the fallen West first responders. At 2 p.m., we will live stream the memorial service from Waco, TX.
A memorial service is planned Thursday in Waco, Texas, to honor the first responders who died in last week's explosion in West. Fifteen people died in the explosion, and at least 10 of them were first responders.
President Obama will fly to Waco for the service after attending the dedication of the George W. Bush presidential library in Dallas.
Gov. Rick Perry, Sen. John Cornyn and other public officials also plan to be there.
It is set to start at 2 p.m. at the Ferrell Center at Baylor University, but officials urged people to arrive early because of the extraordinary security.
The event is organized by the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and Texas Line of Duty Death Task Force.
It was the largest life of first responders in Texas in recent memory.
"Patience is a wonderful thing and we encourage a heavy dose of it," said Baylor University police chief Jim Doak. "But the program -- I've seen what they are going to do -- it will be well worth the wait. The firefighters who are putting this on have put a lot of thought into it, a lot of emotion. There are some real heavy hearts."
A number of fire departments from North Texas are participating in the service, including Irving, Lewisville, Coppell and Red Oak.
