Swimming Time ...

Busy Friday evening for Ledyard ... first we were sent to Center Groton Rd for a two car MVA with injuries, on the way back, the rescue came across a car in a brook on Lambtown Rd, occupant had removed himself from the vehicle and signed a refusal. Here are some pictures from the car into the brook (the booms seen in the pictures were staged in case we needed them, they werent used in the incident) ...

Good Luck Alex ...

Last night Ledyard's Fire Chief Alex Mrazik resigned to pursue a job in the Department of Home Security in Washington D.C.. Deputy Chief Mann took over as chief at midnight last night. Thank you Alex for you time and effort you put towards making our department better equipped and stronger, Good Luck in DC.
