From the Morris FPD Facebook page:
Firefighters create a bond between themselves and their equipment. Without our equipment we could not perform our duties. We care for our fire apparatus better than we care for our own cars at times. So today is a bittersweet day for us at the Fire District. We mark the last shift our citizens and firefighters will be protected by a remarkable piece of fire apparatus. Tower Ladder 2319 will finish it service with us and begin a new life with another Fire District. This apparatus replaced our aging 1975 American La France aerial in 1997. We have included a few action shoots along with a picture next to it’s replacement.
