In the past year the Depart-

by 11 men. These men as well as
most members attended training
sessions of various types. Special
classes were held on operation
of the equipment and emergency
procedures.
Plans for 1966 include a Reg-
ional Fire School to be held at
the Shepherdstown Fire Depart-
ment Headquarters; special train
ing sessions on foam equipment;
the completion of the Standard
and Advanced First Aid Course.
Plans are also being made for
the purchase of a new fire truck
(recommended by the W. Va. Rat
ing Bureau). The new truck will
replace one of the pumpers which
is now 24 years of age. The otherI
two engines are 20 and 16 years
of age. Any truck over 20 years
of age does not receive any in-
surance rate benefits.
Obligations of the Fire Depart-
