End Of An Era

[RescueKujo 130]

As of 0800 on April 20th, 2012 the Santa Ana Fire Department will no longer exist. Due to financial problems, after 128 years as of that date they will become a part of the Orange County Fire Authority. With the take over, their rigs are being relogoed as the OCFA. With that in mind, a friend and I made the rounds one final time for prosperity..

As rigs are already being changed, I am glad we did this yesterday...and I am showing everything we photographed..

As OCFA doesn't do ALS transports, these are going away and a contract for BLS transports will go out.
