Hi-resolution photo of Truck 12. Very large Suitable for prints. Loads in a new window.


	All vehicles of the MVFC carry this emblem, memorializing the firefighters who died on 9/11.

Support 12 is the utility and rescue truck of the Millington Volunteer Fire Company. This Ford F-550 Super Duty truck was purchased by the Company with its own funds, thanks to the generous donations of the town's residents.

This style was selected for its off-road capabilities, including 4 wheel drive and a high suspension. The cab seats five firefighters. The rear of the truck (not shown) is an open bed available for many miscellaneous functions.

(See a "family portrait" of the 4WD trucks of all the Long Hill emergency services - on the Public Safety Introduction Page)

The side compartments are loaded with appropriate equipment. The left side carries containment and absorbent material and protective clothing for first response at a hazardous material incident.

This Memorial Day photo shows the rescue boat behind Engine 13 - our brush truck - because Truck 12 had not yet been delivered.

Long Hill is bordered on 2 sides by 12.4 miles of the Passaic River. During severe flooding, the river overflows its banks, and inundates portions of the town designated as flood plains. MVFC's rescue boat has a 25HP motor, and is kept inflated and trailer mounted so it can be quickly hauled to any point on the river or in the flood plain where a rescue may be necessary. The right-side compartments of Truck 12 carry water survival equipment, floatation gear, waterproof lights, etc to support the water rescue mission.
