New lumber unit for Chicago FD

Sep 6

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, New Delivery | 14 Comments

This from John Keller:

This is one of the two new flatbed lumber units. The other rig is sitting in the shops lot unlettered, also I don’t believe that these will be replacing 5-2-2 as the first one is currently stationed at Special Operations. I also have no info on the rig but the Shop No. is G-664

Excerpts from cbsnews.com:

The Chicago Fire Department on Wednesday honored a fallen firefighter by adding his badge to the memorial wall at the Quinn Fire Academy.

Chicago Fire Department Lt. Kevin Ward died on Aug. 29, 2023, weeks after being injured fighting a house fire on the Northwest Side.

Fire Commissioner Annette Nance-Holt and Mayor Brandon Johnson escorted Ward’s family to the wall where his badge was unveiled.

“The badge we retired today is more than a number. It symbolizes a life dedicated to the call of duty, a life given in sacrifice and service to others,” Nance-Holt said.

The commissioner told his family they will always be a part of the Chicago firefighter family.
