Rescue Engine on Lumberton Job

June 27^th - At 13:38hrs the day crew was alerted to 10 Black Pine Lane in Lumberton on the structure box. RE1712 (D'amico) was responding in minutes with 5 and Chief 1710 (S.Pratt) shortly after. E1311 arrived first due to find an active dryer fire and were quick to contain the same. The crew from the Rescue Engine was assigned as truck company to division 1 and finished opening up and secured utilities. Crews cleared the fire in about 30 minutes.

Red Trucks vs. Green Trucks

June 22^nd - In an effort to enjoy the summer just a little bit more, the Vincent Fire Company challenged Medford Farms Fire Company to a Sunday morning game of softball at Memorial Field in Vincentown. With game time finally arriving, there were two well-represented teams ready to have some good times playing softball. Although the game was just a bit lopsided in score (in favor of the red trucks) after 9-innings of play, both teams enjoyed the time spent both on the field and back in quarters for the BBQ that followed. The Vincent Fire Company is looking forward to “hitting the road” in the near future as the second game will be hosted at their home field.

Lieutenant Gets Deployed

June 5^th - Lieutenant Chris Allen is part of the 114^th Infantry, Reconnaissance Platoon which is set to be deployed June 18. Orders will be taking him over to the Operation Enduring Freedom efforts that are continuing in the Middle-East region. As it stands, his orders will be in effect for 12-months, brining him back at some point during the summer of 2009. On behalf of the Vincent Fire Company, we would like to wish you and your platoon a safe deployment as you fight for the freedoms which we enjoy each and every day! We look forward to your safe return!
