Nothing gets handed to you in the truck company.

After completing his Tower Lead Firefighter packet, Firefighter Bates was presented with a custom furnace piece from the members of Tower 513. A symbol of the time, effort, and commitment it takes to earn your place as a lead firefighter at the Midtown Trucking Company.

Congratulations, Bates. Well deserved.

Yesterday, members of the Dale City Volunteer Fire Department joined firefighters from across the Commonwealth at the Virginia Fallen Firefighters Memorial in Richmond to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Tower 513 proudly took part in displaying the American flag during the ceremony. DCVFD was also represented by our Honor Guard Commander and another member of our Honor Guard.

Among those remembered was Barry Maham, a former member of the Dale City Volunteer Fire Department who later went on to serve as a Captain with the Fairfax County Fire and Rescue Department. His dedication to the fire service and commitment to protecting others will not be forgotten.

We honor Barry and all of Virginia’s fallen firefighters.
