Engine 52 returns from Emergency Vehicle Specialist (EVS) in Hagerstown, Maryland, where it spent several months out of service for an extensive rehabilitation project. The 1989 FMC pumper needed the rehabilitation efforts to extend it’s useful life while the department looked for ways to replace it. Engine 52 remains in active service today, as one the oldest front line pumpers in the County. The Capitol Heights Volunteer Fire Department continues to seek grant funding for the replacement of this pumper. The pumper was dedicated to Treasurer Emeritus Ernest E. Moreland in 1989 at the department’s 75th anniversary banquet.
