I emailed Mike Sanders earlier this month and special requested a few photos from Roanoke County, where I got my start in the fire service back in 1994. Mike was nice enough to oblige my request and send me pics of Tower and Tanker 9 (Fort Lewis). Thanks Mike!

KME Tower 9

Though it may seem odd to have a Tower Ladder and Tanker at the same house... Station 9 is part rural and part suburban. The main reason for the Tower is a large nursing home in their first due. The Tanker also supports southeastern Montgomery County, VA (Elliston VFD). Medic 9 (24 hour county staffed) also operates out of Fort Lewis.
