New engine joins fire department as 25-year-old truck retires

U.S. Airmen assigned to the 355th Civil Engineer Squadron push a firetruck into a garage during a firetruck dedication ceremony at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Aug. 20, 2026. The firetruck pushing tradition commemorates early firefighting when horse-drawn wagons were the primary method of extinguishing fires. After putting out a fire, early firefighters would disconnect the horse and push the wagon back into storage. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Devlin Bishop)
