Over Scanner Traffic . . .

International Firefighters’ Day was May 4
International Firefighter Day is a day set aside for communities around the world to remember fallen firefighters and show their appreciation for the service that firefighters provide in protecting people and property.
As a team of volunteers, they make great sacrifices of their time, their talent, and sometimes their safety so that we can all be safe.
Thank you to all of our Fire Departments!
