Departments collection destroyed by fire

Department`s collection destroyed by fire

On September 30, at 11:35 p.m., a fire in the social room of our fire station destroyed our patch collection displayed there. Our members had collected these badges from all over the country while on vacations and other trips. The collection was one of our greatest sources of pride and will be sorely missed.

We would be very grateful if fire departments would send us patches to help us create another collection.
