Philadelphia Firemen's Hall Appreciation Day and Muster, 10/23/2005
After a 16 year absence, the Philadelphia Firemen's Hall Appreciation Day and Muster was held at the Philadelphia Fire Training Academy on October 23, 2005. Doylestown's Engine 79-2, our 1968 Hahn pumper, also known as the "Chicken", made the trip to Northeast Philadelphia to be judged. Aaron Soldavin, Matt Grogan and Dan Kline worked hard to get the truck ready, and it paid off. The truck took top honors in its class. Hats off to our brothers from Warrington who took top honors in the firefighters competition.
