Changing of the Guard
The new Whitesville 6... and the old Whitesville 4
The Whitesville Fire Department recently purchased this 2010 Chevrolet and equipment for the Independence Fire District. The department has been saving money from fundraisers and from donations received. We are extremely thankful to the Whitesville and neighboring communities for supporting our fundraising efforts allowing us to purchase this new truck. We are proud to present this new addition to our firefighting equipment roster.
So as you
look at the firefighter with his rake, hose or axe,
His beet red face or ice covered mustache,
You should know why he goes through that smoky front
door,
And is forced to crawl like a baby down on the
floor.
He does it to save both lives and property,
All that is precious to you and to me.
So take a good look at this modern warrior who
serves his call proud and true,
And know that he would die just to save me and you.
