A chronology of all the fire apparatus, purchase price and disposition will follow. We would be remiss in not mentioning some pieces of equipment that are special to the fire company.

The 1927 American La France holds a special place in this history. It is not only the first truck purchased, but was the only magneto, rotary pump piece of equipment ever owned by the company.

The O-10 crash truck purchased as surplus from the Air Force and nicknamed the “Elephant” was the only piece of equipment capable of navigating the beach during the March 1962 storm. Salt water from this storm took its’ toll on this truck and in 1963 it was stripped and sold for salvage.

Number 4, the 1961 Ford/American La France was the first new piece of equipment purchased by the fire company, thus enabling us to join the Sussex County and State Fireman’s Association.

In the mid 60s it was decided by the company that an ambulance service was needed on the beach. A used 1960 Cadillac ambulance was purchased and put into service at that time. Around the station this ambulance was affectionately known as “Old Red”.

A first for the company was the purchase of a 2006 Ford Command vehicle that is on a rotating schedule with the company line officers.

On August 19, 2007 the company placed into service 89 Marine (2) a Sea Ark Rescue and Fire fighting boat that is capable of handling emergencies that occur in the Delaware Bay and in mutual aid to other companies in Delaware
