GLIAFAA 16th Annual Frankenmuth Muster 7-27-13

[John Kenealy]

,,,,Not sure where it served and the current owner is the fourth person to own this rig and didn't know its history....  

 

 

....The current owner couldn't provide me with the history on this rig.....

 

It's a shame that all of this history is lost. I understand why departments scrape the name off the side, but to me a fire truck that is without its history and identity is missing a major part of what fire trucks are all about. I love to look at old fire trucks at these musters, but it saddens me to see a nice old truck with some made up, sometimes ridiculous name on the side of it, and no one can tell me what community the truck was once the pride of.
