HONOR GUARD
Chesapeake
Fire Department started the Honor Guard

opening ceremonies, parades & funerals.
COMMAND BUS
The Command Bus has one overwhelming
benefit to the emergency services
throughout Virginia and North Carolina
-- its mobility. We can now bring
a complete mobile office out to
the scene of an emergency and provide
the incident command staff, on
scene, with the resources needed
to cope with demanding emergency
operations.
The Command Bus is actually a refurbished passenger bus. Firefighters loaned their talents to reconfigure it to accommodate up to 6 radio positions and a command and control office. The unit is capable of broadcasting over a wide spectrum of radio frequencies.
