BIGGEST PIECE OF EQUIPMENT
IN THE CONOVER FIRE DEPARTMENT
This 2001 fire engine, equipped with a
75-foot aerial ladder,
was the first ladder truck purchased for the Conover Fire
Department.
The engine is 470 horse-power and the truck carries a crew of
six.
The Conover
Fire Department consists of forty-six total personnel.
Of these, thirty-six are volunteers.
Thus the spirit of firemen,
everywhere--the willingness
to enter into danger while others are rushing to safety.
