E114 reports with a new crew: Derek, Rickie, Uriah, and Kirk. The crew is currently working out of the Ojai, California Ranger Station within Los Padres National Forest.

On their first day, E114 responded as mutual aid to the Carrizo Fire, assisting with initial attack operations. The fire started at approximately 10 acres, grew to a reported 150 acres, and was mapped at 268 acres before forward progress was stopped.

Great work, gentlemen!

70 Years of Service: A Look Back
As we continue celebrating our 70th year of service, we’re sharing some historical fun facts from the early days of the Security Fire Department!
If you lived in the Security/Widefield area between 1956 and the late 1980s, you may remember this.
Back then, there was no 911. With a 50-member, all-volunteer fire department, residents had to call a specific emergency phone number for their area to report a fire or other emergency.
In Security, that “fire phone” would ring at the fire station, homes of department officers and even several volunteers local businesses—approximately eight locations in all. Whoever happened to be there would answer the phone, sometimes including family members. They would take down the address and type of emergency, then push a button next to the phone.
That button activated the fire sirens throughout the district. Four sirens, positioned from north to south, alerted volunteer firefighters to head to the station, get the fire engines, and respond to the emergency.
And this happened day or night, 24/7, relying entirely on volunteers and the community’s dedication to serving their neighbors.
Around October 1980, members were issued radio pagers as 911 and modern dispatching systems began to evolve. The sirens were eventually shut down and removed, with one exception—the siren that remains atop Fire Station 1 on Security Boulevard.
🚒 70 years of service. 70 years of history. And countless stories worth remembering.

An update from E-114 on Deployment, they have been assigned to the San Bernardino National Forest to the Sand Jacinto Ranger District, working closely with local crews and even conducting joint training on progressive hose pack deployments. The crew is doing well and soaking up all the training possible. It has been average of 95 degrees on the mountain and 112 degrees in the valley.
