Episode 6: Loudoun County's Combined Fire and Rescue System

Published on: 1st March, 2021

Loudoun County, Virginia's Combined Fire and Rescue System had its start in the volunteer fire companies of the community, and one person who started as a volunteer in that county rose to the rank of Fire Chief. In this episode, we take a look back at that history and some significant incidents that shaped how the system developed and a Fire Marshal became Fire Chief.
