The Okolona (KY) Quantum cab features an interior/exterior accessible EMS compartment that spans the entire width of the truck. To make the hoses easier to deploy and for cleanliness, the pump panel is enclosed. The entire interior of the pumper body is coated in Line-X for increased durability. The rear incorporates thru-tank ladder storage and an air suspension dump. When activated, the rear of the truck drops 4.5” to make it easier to access the tailboard and rear ladder.

Keith Stocker lost a storage building to fire late Tuesday night. The flames also reached an exterior wall of the popular Country Market building at Stocker farms. The following day, his first instinct was gratitude, not a sense of loss. He knew it could have been a lot worse. “It touched it but it didn’t take it,” he said.

Firefighters, cops and medics took turns this week rappelling from a prop helicopter in Olds Station. The first responders were practicing hoist rescues, the type of recovery often used to pluck stranded or injured hikers from remote areas. Mounted above Chelan County Fire District 1, Station 11’s hose tower, the prop helicopter matches the district’s helicopter that’s currently in service, which adds important overlap between training and real world rescues, said Chief Brian Brett.
