Excerpts from the Addison Fire Protection District on Facebook:
We are excited to introduce our latest addition – a 107′ aerial from Pierce. Today, Widaman Sign completed the decals, and it looks fantastic. Next, the aerial will undergo upgrades for new radios and emergency lighting before it returns for final training and deployment.Ladder 72 will be at station 72 in the industrial park and will play a vital role in our operational strategy for the next 10-15 years. Serving as our truck company, it will carry many items including heavy-duty extrication tools. Additionally, it will be ALS equipped and staffed with firefighter/paramedics.We extend our gratitude to our Board of Trustees for making this purchase possible.
thanks Tim

This from Tim Right:
Per The AFD face-book pageThe AFPD proudly donated our retired 1996 E-One engine to the Campus FPD located SW of Dwight, Illinois. This small rural district protects the citizens of Campus and Emington Illinois with all volunteers. We hope this engine serves this district and the citizens they serve for many years to come.

This from John Tulipano:
Just a few quick shots from Glen Ellyn’s box alarm today at 503 Duane Street. Companies made a quick knock on the fire. Was one room on the 3rd floor in the rear of a 3-story, 50X100, mixed occupancy commercial with apartments above. One civilian was transported to Loyola.
