This is a sad issue in the long history of Volunteer Fire Depts. Times are changing in communities where people no longer have the ability to drop what their doing to respond to an emergency. It would be nice of the Chief would try to keep volunteers that are available for a standby engine, as at any major fire, man power is a valuable tool. Hats off to all the previous volunteer's that provided assistance.
