The past few weeks our firefighters have stayed busy between calls, trainings, and a Driver/Operator certification. As seen below we have responded to hazmat calls to include an oil leak from an aircraft on the ramp and a freon leak at our Vehicle Maintenance.

In addition we have been focusing on refreshing our RIT/FAST and rope rescue skills.

Lastly we would like to congratulate FF Brombacher who completed his Driver/Operator Pumper. Congrats on becoming a certified driver for Engine-7 brother!

Yesterday we answered a rare call for service when our firefighter family needed it most. Stratton supplied Stewart ANGB Fire Department with manpower to support an Engine crew while they were mourning the loss of one of our own. We keep the family and our fellow firefighters in our thoughts and prayers as they navigate through these times.
