It was a busy day for GVFD. It started with week 6 of the Hood County Fire Academy focusing on Forcible Entry, Ventilation, and Fire Protection Systems. At the same time the GVFD Special Operations Team participated in a Mass Casualty Boating Accident Exercise on the Brazos River in Parker County. Participants in this training exercise included Parker County ESD6, DCBE/Acton VFD, Texas Search and Rescue and a special thanks to the Parker County CERT team for being our patients and victims. This was excellent training and GVFD was grateful to be able to participate. Then after all that the department celebrated with our traditional 'Push In' of Tanker Ten (T10) into the bay at Station 1. See the separate post. What a great day to serve our community. ...

1701 West Pearl street as we “push in” Tanker 10. Bring the kids and let them push a fire engine into the station.Everyone is invited to the Granbury Volunteer Fire Department "Push-In" ceremony for their new truck, Tanker 10. It's Saturday, May 13 at 3 p.m. at Station 1, 1701 West Pearl St.![]()
The "Push-In" tradition dates back to the 1800s when fire apparatus was pulled by horses. The horses could not back the apparatus into the fire stations, so the firefighters would disconnect the horses and manually push the apparatus into the station. This tradition continues as a ceremony placing new equipment into service for the community.

Not me I’d rather have fires than hail n tornados! and yes I’m a fire fighter
We are stuck in a Omega block. It's not allowing moisture from the west to pass the center of our country. El Nino is coming but blocked by Omega for now. Holding this pattern a week, maybe more. youtu.be/nkFfz4vw1Sg

Congratulations Landon B. Drake, we are very proud of you and all the hard work you have put in! Congratulations to all the other recipients and to the young lady who received the scholarship as well.
What an amazing event for the men and women who work tirelessly to keep our community safe!
Well done Landon B. Drake. Congratulations!
That stache though 🔥🔥🔥
The date chosen for International Firefighters’ Day was linked to the feast day of St Florian (the patron saint of all 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 of the 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.![]()

Happy International Firefighters' Day to firefighters and their supporters all around the world. We thank you for the courage, commitment, and dedication you show every day by serving your community. Stay safe. ![]()
