Drolshagen gets new fire engines: security for everyone!

Last Saturday a special event was celebrated in Drolshagen. On the occasion of the Florianstag, a blessing ceremony for two new fire engines took place. The ceremony that joined the Holy Mass was an impressive event for the volunteers of the fire brigade and the entire community. Pastor Stefan Wigger blessed the vehicles, which were procured in accordance with a council decision last year.

The newly procured turntable ladder, a general -overhauled, 18 -year -old model, stands out among the new vehicles. This aerial ladder is of great importance because it enables the rescue of people from upper floors in fires and medical emergencies. It replaces a predecessor vehicle over 30 years old, the technical possibilities of which were no longer up to date. Armin Fahrenkrog, the head of the fire brigade, said that although the aerial ladder is not required by law, but contributes to improving security - both for the citizens of Drolshagen and for the emergency services. A second escape route is required for buildings from a certain height; Jens Gipperich, deputy military director, made it clear that in such cases leaders often not sufficient. An example of this is the council hall in the old monastery, where there is no possibility of evacuation in the event of a fire.

Expansion of the operational potential

In addition to the aerial ladder, a multi -purpose boat was put into service, which the Drolshagen fire brigade can now use the first motorized water rescue product. Before that, the volunteers were only available for missions on the Listertalsperre. The purchase of the multi -purpose boat significantly extends the possibilities of timely assistance and improves the responsibility of the fire brigade in emergencies.

Mayor Uli Berghof symbolically presented the keys for the new vehicles to the fire department manager Dirk Nebeling. The training and instructions for both vehicles have already been successfully completed since last year. This means that the new means of use are ready for use. The event not only formed a solemn setting, but also marked an important progress in the equipment of the Drolshagen fire brigade.

The special role of the fire brigade in the community should not be underestimated. News.de emphasizes that the use of these new devices is not only essential for the firefighters. In this sense, the fire brigade commitment goes beyond mere fire fighting and also includes the improvement of the general security standards in Drolshagen.

For many fire brigade members, the preservation of such vehicles is a dream that has now become a reality. Lokalplus has reported the importance of these innovations for the fire brigade Drolshagen and documented the anticipation among the forces. With these investments, the fire brigade is even better equipped to master the challenges of the future.
