Our greatest sympathies
webassets/k4f4mgdoublemug.jpg

Our condolenses go out to Okaloosa County Sheriff's Deputy Anthony Forgione. He was shot and killed Tuesday morning as he tried to apprehend a man who escaped from the hospital. R-6 ran a call earlier that day @ 205 Shell on the man who later shot the Deputy.

" The dude was really whacked out" said one of R-6 crew members of the shooter. This is a terrible situation and our prayers go out to the Deputy's family.

"Sticker club"

Please remove all IAFF markings from your vehicle when selling, trading-in, etc. The IAFF logo is universally known and respected and identifies both them and their family members as part of an elite profession and connected to Organized Labor.

IAFF decals and emblems should not be given or sold to any individuals or non-family members who are not IAFF members. What you perceive to be a friendly gesture may be viewed by a police officer as illegal. Police in some states have interpreted the displaying of an IAFF or fire department logo by individuals who are not firefighters or the immediate family member of a firefighter as impersonating a firefighter, which is illegal in most states.


DO THE RIGHT THING.  REMOVE IAFF DECALS WHEN DISPOSING OF A MOTOR VEHICLE IN ANY WAY.
