New Command Vehicle & Equipment

NAFD has recently taken delivery of a new Command vehicle and new rescue equipment. The 2001 Ford Expedition, a 4-wheel drive utility vehicle, arrived January 24, 2001. The vehicle will be used for command staff functions at all emergency incidents.

The department has also upgraded its extrication equipment for motor vehicle accidents. The new "Jaws of Life" and related equipment are state of the art and will enable firefighters to rapidly access patients trapped in vehicles involved in accidents.
