Engine Co.28 operating a 1974 American La France pumper which was originally delivered in lime-yellow 🚒 🔥 this is after the R.D. Murray rehab with the signature square fenders. This was also with the silver wheels. This was done so there would be consistency among the other City Departments, it wasn't uncommon to see a garbage truck with a red wheel 🇺🇸 🇺🇲 Bill Friedrich photo 📸

September is National Preparedness Month — a good time to ask yourself a simple question: Would you know what to do if an emergency happened right now?
You don't always think you need to be prepared… until you suddenly are.
Take a few minutes to think through what you and your family would do in an emergency, make a plan, and have the essentials you may need ready to go.
Being prepared doesn't mean expecting something to happen. It means being ready if it does.

💚Mayday Alert for the Puckett family💚

Texas’ Cody Puckett is a firefighter and paramedic with the Belton Fire Department, where he has proudly served for the past three years. Earlier this year, Cody was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and is now preparing to undergo surgery to have his thyroid removed. Following the procedure, he will require lifelong medication to replace the hormones his thyroid would normally produce. Cody and his wife, Erin, are also raising a young child while navigating the uncertainty and challenges that come with his diagnosis. Despite these circumstances, Cody continues to be a hardworking firefighter and a valued member of his department.

Cody and his family are now facing the financial and personal challenges that come with his treatment and recovery. His upcoming surgery and ongoing medical care will require time away from work as he focuses on his health. Let’s support the Pucketts while they navigate a stressful situation.
