Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB)-based Naval District Washington (NDW) Fire and Emergency Services Tower Ladder 21 sits with black bunting in honor of Fire Department Battalion Chief John “Johnny Mac” McDonald during his memorial service. McDonald, 54, a life member, volunteer firefighter and former fire chief of the Stafford (Virginia) Volunteer Fire Department, a volunteer battalion chief with the Stafford County Fire and Rescue Department and a paid firefighter and battalion chief with the JBAB-based NDW Fire and Emergency Services, passed while on duty at JBAB on May 30, 2014. Before becoming a paid firefighter with NDW in July 1984, McDonald served four years in the U.S. Navy as a boatswain’s mate, most of which was aboard the destroyer USS Caron (DD-970), during which time he earned a sea service deployment award. He was very proud of his naval service, according to his co-workers. (U.S. Navy photo by Joseph P. Cirone/Released)
