Fire & EMS

Department personnel in Wexford County start with 21 and work forward. with the Chief
being 01. For example, 2-01 would be the Buckley Fire Chief and 2-21 would be the 
next highest ranking officer. 

The Truck numbering is as follows: 02 being your lead pumper, followed by 03 and 
so on. The reason behind this is supposed to be so that you can follow the 
assumption that trucks with even numbers will be pumpers and trucks with 
odds will be just general tankers that may or may not be capable of pumping.
