The 26 years that Assistant Chief
J. A. West has been with the Will
mington Fire d e partment closely
parallels the advance of better
fire fighting methods in Whining
ton.
And rightly SO, because his ap-
plication in diligence and con-
~scientious study as a fireman has
led the way to many of the
changes.
In 1920, when he came with the
department, there were three fire
stations in the city; now there are
six. Then there were 80 firemen;
now there are rs. While the de-
partment has eight pumper trucks
now, there was one then. Now 15,-
900 feet of hose is available to
fight fires; in 1920 there was 5000
feet. Also the firemen's pension
and a training program have been
established since 1920.
Vests rise to his present job
has been gradual, giving him time
to learn each of his jobs thorough
ly. After two years in the depart
ment he was made a pump oper-
ator, a Job he held until 1885. He
was promoted to lieutenant then
and served at No. S station at
18th and Dock streets. His next
boost came two years later, when
in 1887 he was given the joo OF
second assistant chief. And IN
