Camp Adair Sentry
August 13,1942.
Chief Asks Accuracy
Of Location in Report
_
A. L. Shirk, chief of the Camp
Adair fire department and his as
sistant chiefs Wallace and Kielblock
have set up a very efficient fire
fighting and fire preventative or
ganization. Their crews are made
up of men who have had years of
experience in large metropolitan
fire fighting units and an- qualified
in every way to handle their job
on the post.
Chief Shirk expressed the be
lief that both military and civilian
personnel had cooperated 100 per
cent in the prevention of fires, but
that some confusion had resulted
in reporting the location of fires
causing delay in reaching the
acene.
The Chief had this request. If
you ever have a fire to report, get
to a phone as quickly as you can,
and then take it easy. Keep cool
and be sure you have given the
right location. It’s far beter to take
an extra minute or two in giving di-
aections to the fire dispatcher than
to send the equipment out on a wild
goose chase, finally to hunt up the
fire in the best way they can.
Chief Shirk says it’s happened in
the past so let’s be careful in the
future.
