Gloucester Volunteer Fire and Rescue Squad, Inc. took delivery of a new John Deere Gator on June 13, 2014.
The gator is equipped with a water tank, fire pump, and hose that can be used to extinguish brush fires in areas that are inaccessib…le by other vehicles. It also has the capability to transport a patient out of an area with limited access. The gator was purchased using Aid to Localities funds, which GVFRS receives each year from the Virginia Department of Fire Programs to assist in the purchase of fire equipment.
Pictured above is GVFRS Assistant Chief Trey Rilee accepting delivery of the gator from Chimney Corner’s Charlie Crittenden.
The Gloucester Volunteer Fire and Rescue Squad serves the Northern portion of Gloucester County, Virginia, providing fire suppression, technical rescue and emergency medical services to the residents and visitors of Gloucester County.
