Company Training:

Last evening for Company training we visited six different locations in our response area both residential and commercial. Upon arrival at those locations members were provided conditions present. Members rotated with providing a scene size up and completing a 360 report. Along with working on officer communications, other members were tasked with line selection and pulling lines to various areas of the buildings.

Thanks to all the property owners who were generous and allowed us to train! Company 41 had a total of 17 members present.

The engine was improperly tagged as a 1927 then. The driver is Pete Yeager with John Dysert riding beside him. Dysert was the night driver until 1946ish and lived next door to the firehouse. Pete was Secretary and a relief driver for many years...1930's-1960's. Earl Burkholder is riding in back and maybe Steve Fisher from the Cumberland??
