Congrats for being recognized for your service, dedication, and bravery.

On Friday, August 27th, a full box alarm assignment was struck for a residential fire in District 11, Myrtle Grove, a little after 1035 in the morning. Within 4 minutes of dispatch, Engine 11C, under Lt. Cloer, arrived to find smoke showing from a single story residence. While stretching the initial attack line, FF Held saw a victim unconscious just inside the open, smoke filled front door. FF Held dropped the hose, ran to the victim, and removed them to the front yard. As Lt. Cloer finished the stretch of the hose, FF Segner, the driver, began providing immediate and effective BLS care with air given to the patient. The crew worked quickly to not only keep care to the patient, but also charge the hose with water and go inside to extinguish and check for any further victims. Escambia EMS arrived a few minutes later, took over patient care with ALS, and rapidly transported them to the closest, appropriate hospital.

Great crew efficiency, rapid recognition of immediate life safety, and a “expect victim” mindset helped same another Escambia County Citizen.

Great Job Engine 11C!

As Hurricane Ida approaches our neighboring states, please do not let your guard down. There are still risks of both tornadoes and flooding in our area. There are already waterfront streets flooded and strong thunderstorms moving through the area.

Go around, don’t drown- do not drive through unknown depth or moving water. Your car will float off the road and you will place yourself at a high risk.

Be storm aware 🌀 🌧 🌩

It's a beautiful sight!

Have a safe and happy "Blues on the Beach" week!

🇺🇸Happy Independence Day to all of our families and citizens!🇺🇸

Today, ECFR's fleet issues reared it's ugly head in exceptional fashion. Numerous trucks were taken in and out of service across the County causing several periods of delayed and/inadequate response.

Twice today companies were forced into apparatus that could not accommodate the entire crew, leaving a crew member behind at the station. That's right, sit at the house and wait because we don't have a rig for you to work on.

These issues continue to take place and aren't "freak" occurrences anymore. When they do happen it puts an enormous strain on the already understaffed portions of administration to conduct a literal Chinese fire drill in an attempt to put rigs in service.

The strain and stress placed on your professional firefighters is also immense as we fully recognize the potential life threatening situation that citizens' lives are now in. We want the citizens to know that we are truly grateful for the opportunity to serve you all and we appreciate your support.

1 in 3 children in Escambia County goes to bed hungry. That is one of your neighbors, one of your sons baseball teammates, or one of your daughters classmates.

Read that again.

Escambia County Firefighters salute the United States Army and wish you a Happy 246th Birthday. We are grateful for your service! 🇺🇸 #goarmy #happybirthdayarmy

Sad news out of Baldwin County tonight. Prayers to the brothers in Blue.

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

Our thoughts are with the Los Angeles County Fire Department brothers and sisters on this tragic day.

News hit the media early this morning of an off-duty firefighter in an active shooter situation at Station 81. The results were the deaths of the shooter and another firefighter at the station, as well as injuries to a third.

Remember the fallen, we thank them and their families for their dedication to our freedoms.

Best wishes to Firefighter Avvery Haymer as he pursues other career opportunities. FF Haymer was assigned to the Ferry Pass station on Engine 7B.

Thank you for all of your dedication to the citizens of Escambia County!

When you know its a "no doubter" 🔥👨&zwj;🚒🚒👩&zwj;🚒

Crews busy early this morning extinguishing afire in the Ensley District off of Nine Mile Road. More to come...

Happy EMS week to the Paramedics and EMT's of Escambia County!

We appreciate you making sure our community stays safe. We know how hard each of you work every day and night, and want to take the time to say thanks!

🚒 🚑 👨&zwj;🚒

Today we celebrate our military on "Armed Forces Day." Many of our members served their nation in the military and now continue to serve in their communities for the same reasons.

We are blessed to live in a military community and are privileged to be able to continue our gratitude by providing a safe community.

We regret to pass on that a New Haven (CT) Firefighter has died in the Line of Duty and another is critical this morning.

Firefighters received multiple calls of a fire on Valley Street around 1245 hours. When they arrived, they had heavy fire and the members rescued two residents who were trapped inside the house. During the fire, a Firefighter reported becoming disoriented and lost in the building...he and another Firefighter were then found unconscious on the second floor of the building.

Remember fallen brothers...

That's the thing about firemen, they are ALWAYS firemen.

Great job to Engine 6B Firefighter Jacob Hoskins for always being ready, both on duty and off.

Our moms raised some pretty awesome kids.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy International Firefighters Day!

May 4 is the feast day of St Florian, the patron saint of firefighters. St Florian was the first known commander of one firefighting squad in the Roman Empire. He lost his life, as well as those of his colleagues, for protecting the same humane ideas which firefighters all over the world share even today.

Firefighters in most European countries celebrate their day on 4th of May as a ‘Day of Fire Service’ as well as St Florian’s Day. This date is also known as St Florian’s Day worldwide and has been tradition for more than 150 years in Europe.

We serve you, our citizens, and take this time reflect on our heritage. Take a minute to say a pray for our safety and protection.

Congratulations to Escambia County's newest Fire Lieutenant, S. Bosso!

He has been acting in this role for a few months in Myrtle Grove, but it is now official. We are all proud of his hard work, determination, and stories that are short and to the point.

🔥Citizen pulled from house fire in Bellview 👨🏻&zwj;🚒

On the early hours of February 2nd, firefighters were dispatched to a mobile home fire in Bellview. While enroute, the caller advised 911 of the entrapment of his roommate inside the burning structure. Within minutes, Engine 1 arrived to find smoke coming from all parts of the trailer.

Lt Barnett was the company officer of, what happened to be a rarity due to low staffing, a crew of 4. He directed his nozzle firefighter to stretch an attack line to the front door as the caller met him and advised of the probable location of his roommate. Lt. Barnett then directed his other firefighter to ensure the front door was cleared and opened, and went around to the rear of the house. Lt. Barnett forced the door, found heavy smoke inside the hallway leading to the bedroom on his side, with a partialy opened door. Using his newly departmental purchased FLIR Thermal Imaging Camera, he was able to identify the victim clearly on top of the bed. Lt Barnett made his way into the bedroom, as the hose stream for the attack line sprayed down the hallway and into the room of fire origin. Lt Barnett grabbed the barely-conscious patient and began to remove him to safety from the thick, black smoke. FF Herring had made his way around to the back from opening the front door as Lt Barnett met him at the rear door. Together, they carried the victim around to the front of the home.
Once there, FF Straut, the driver of the next due Engine 6, from Ensley, provided Basic Life Support until EMS arrival. There were no burns visible, but the patient was taken to a local hospital for the heavy amount of smoke inhalation.

This is the 3rd of 4 citizens pulled from a structure fire in Escambia County in the last 6 months, and the 2nd of 3 in the past 3 weeks. The training and dedication these crews put in day in and day out is unmatched. Their drive to be ready for that once in a career opportunity to save a life from a fire truly shows with the smooth operation and rescue of citizens we are sworn to protect.

Engine 1 has a company motto that is held in the high regard to their members- "The Highest Standard." Their work that night proved they live for that cause.

🚒 Myrtle Grove Firefighters pull woman from apartment fire 👨🏻&zwj;🚒

On January 18th, firefighters were called to an apartment complex by concerned neighbors who smelled smoke and heard smoke detectors coming from an upstairs apartment.

Engine 11 responded within moments, stretched a hose line to the floor, forced the door open to find thick smoke throughout the family room. Crawling on his hands and knees, Lt. Shaw rapidly searched the apartment before the protection of a hose line was there and found the occupant unconscious. He quickly scooped up the female, removed her from the hazardous environment, and carried her down stairs.

Once there, the arriving companies and remaining member of Engine 11 began BLS measures to revive her. Once EMS arrived, took over care, and left with the patient, she was conscious.

This is the everyday actions we take to save those we serve. Excellent job and courageous effort by Lt. Shaw and crews to save a citizen.

This is the 2nd of 3 total savings of human lives by your Escambia County Firefighters in the last 6 months.

We will come for you...

Best wishes to Firefighter Clint Miller as he pursues other career opportunities with a local department. FF Miller was assigned to the Pensacola Beach Station most recently, but also served in Ensley and Perdido Key.

Thank you for all of your dedication to the citizens of Escambia County!
