Last night, crews successfully placed Rescue 1 and Rescue 2 into service. This marks a significant and much-needed upgrade to our fleet, enhancing both our medical capabilities and on scene command response. These additions will greatly improve our ability to serve the community efficiently and effectively.

Today we remember Captain Randy Willmon.

Captain Willmon served the fire service with dedication and honor for decades. His leadership, faith, and commitment to serving others left a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege to work alongside him.

Randy was the kind of firefighter who led by example and always put others first. His legacy continues to live on in the fire service and in the lives he touched.

We will never forget you brother.

We are very appreciative of the many years of partnership and collaboration with Chief Dan Somes. It has been an honor to work alongside him, and we wish him the very best as he begins this new chapter in life.

We also look forward to continuing our strong relationship with Chief Chambers. Having worked alongside him for many years, we are confident the City of Lindale made an excellent choice.

Congratulations, Chief Chambers!

We couldn’t be more appreciative for the assistance during the Sherra Street Fire. It’s not every day you get to see operations like this unfold. From coordination to ex*****on, the response was seamless. Thank you to everyone who came together to support the suppression efforts!
