The week is coming to a end which means it's "Fire Truck Friday". In the early years of the Fire Department we operated the Townships ambulances until the Millstone First Aid Squad was formed in 1954. The Fire Department ambulances are the "FTF" feature this week.

The "FTF" feature today is the original tanker 32-96. The tractor was a 1975 Chevy tractor with a early 1950's oil tank which was converted to operate as a water tanker. This set up was used until the mid 1970's

This morning members of the Department participated in a tanker drill with the Suburban Chiefs Tanker Task Force in Plainsboro. This is good refresher drill because water shuttle operations are a standard practice in Millstone where we have no hydrants.
