WB invests $1.5 million in state-of-the-art fire truck BY GENA JOHNSON

WEST BLOOMFIELD — The West Bloomfield Fire Department recently unveiled its newest asset: a Rosenbauer Commander Cobra. The state-of-the-art fire truck made its debut during a “push-in ceremony” on June 11. Elected officials and community members attended the event at Fire Station No. 5. A push-in-ceremony is a fire service tradition that welcomes new trucks into service. Firefighters and residents push the truck into the station — an homage to firefighters of the 1800s, who pushed horse-drawn trucks into the station after the horses were dispatched.
