Members of the truck committee traveled to 4-Guys Fire Apparatus in Meyersdale, PA to take delivery of Tanker 5331. The committee arrived at the 4-Guys plant and met with all of the department heads responsible for the construction of the new unit. The specifications were reviewed and several final adjustments and decisions were made prior to delivery. Thank you to the entire staff at 4-Guys for your attention to detail and assistance with the finishing touches that were made. The committee would also like to thank Bob Pursell of Commonwealth Fire Apparatus for all of his assistance with the specification and purchase of the new unit.
The next step will be to re-locate and mount the equipment from the old 5331 and begin the process of driver and operator training. The lettering and reflective striping will be completed by Danz Lettering in the coming months.
All of the members of the HFCo would like to thank the Residents and Board of Supervisors of Lower Nazareth Township for their assistance with the purchase of our latest piece of apparatus.
