Today, the Bedford Fire Department pauses to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. We are profoundly grateful for their courage, dedication, and selflessness.
As a community and a department rooted in service, we carry their memory in our hearts not just today, but every day.
Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day as we reflect on the true cost of our freedom. 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

🚒 This past week, our crews completed drill evolutions focused on hoseline advancements, communications, and horseshoe hose loads. While interior firefighters worked to extinguish a mock fire, our exterior and EMS crews managed on-scene rehabilitation for exiting personnel. Training sharpens our individual skills, but training together makes us a stronger team!

🚒 🚑 Last night, our EMTs and Firefighters held a joint training session to master two new additions to our lifesaving arsenal. By splitting into mixed teams, members at all levels were able to collaborate and learn from one another’s expertise.

The first addition is a supraglottic airway, a critical tool recently approved for Basic Life Support (BLS) providers by the NYS Department of Health. In the event of cardiac arrest, our EMTs will now be equipped to provide superior airway management, significantly improving patient outcomes.

We also introduced the Holmatro Forcible Entry Tool. Designed to replace the traditional axe and Halligan bar on our ambulances, this “all-in-one” tool allows crews to gain access to homes, businesses, and vehicles faster than ever before. It is a versatile powerhouse capable of cutting, wedging, ramming, spreading, and lifting.

🚒 Cheers to 20 years of service! 🚒

This afternoon, Paul Aquilino will punch out for the final time. Paul is truly a jack-of-all-trades and, remarkably, a master of them all. He is someone the fire department depends on daily, but more importantly, he is a fixture of our community—the person everyone knows they can count on, no matter the need.

We’re going to miss following the sound of his whistle through the station and seeing his smiling face every morning. While it feels like his retirement will leave a hole in our daily routine, Paul has made sure to remind us that he’ll still be around.

Paul, we wish you years of well-deserved relaxation spent doing exactly what you love. Thank you for all you have done over the past 20 years!

This week, we had the pleasure of hosting coaches from the Bedford Pound Ridge Little League for their annual CPR training. There is nothing we love more than empowering our neighbors with the skills and confidence to act in an emergency. Safety is a team effort—on and off the field! ⚾️ ❤️

Last night BFD members attended the company’s Annual Dinner to install Chiefs and Officers for 2026. New Chief Shawn Carmody thanked outgoing Chief Graham Glauber and introduced his team. We also honored last year’s top responders and members who had earned Life status. Showing their support for the new team were eight ex-Chiefs of the department. Congratulations to all new officers and honorees.
