Throwback Time: the front ID plates from our two predecessor companies
By Adams Area Fire District James - Jimmy - Ellis Firehouse Station 42

In that era, nearly all call response started from home, or some location about town. No live-in program existed. The pager would activate, or you’d hear the house siren, and off you’d go!
Members who drove to the firehouse would activate a blue light, and these plates helped identify responding volunteers.
Plus it was a small badge of honor to show you were a member & were doing something for your community.
