The North Maine Fire District has a new decal which is being added to their apparatus. It replicates a challenge coin that they created several years ago and incorporates the new black and gold colors on Engine 1.
The North Maine Fire District page has a new link to a separate page showing their decal and several patches. Click on the Company Patches link at the top of the North Maine Fire District page.
