Description
**🔥 Department History** KCFD traces its origins to the **Kingsboro Fire Company**, founded in **1898** as a volunteer bucket brigade. By the early 1900s, the city had developed a more formal fire department, acquiring its first horse-drawn steam fire engines. The department evolved rapidly, becoming a **fully paid, professional force** in the **1940s**. Throughout the 20th century, Kingsboro experienced industrial growth, urban expansion, and infrastructure improvements, requiring KCFD to expand both its personnel and resources. **Milestones in KCFD History** - **1893** – First fire station built in downtown Kingsboro. - **1925** – Transition from horse-drawn fire engines to motorized apparatus. - **1948** – KCFD becomes a fully career department. - **1974** – First paramedic units introduced to provide advanced life support (ALS). - **1992** – Establishment of the Hazardous Materials Team due to industrial growth. - **2011** – Implementation of a modern CAD
