Yesterday was Master Technician Jeff Tincher’s last day after over 26 years with . The day was spent running calls and reminiscing with the crew from FS25, Reston (A-Shift), where he has been assigned for the past ten years. Along with their Special Operations partners from Rescue 401, the shift wished their great friend, firefighter, and truck chauffeur a well-deserved “see you later”.

The celebration continued after shift this morning as the crews enjoyed a workout and a final meal before sending MTech Tincher off to enjoy his retirement. Well done, MTech Tincher. You will be greatly missed.

Shout out to our community partners CrossFit Reston for having us for a workout this morning.
