Andover Fire Department (Connecticut)

thumb
==Overview ==
The Andover Volunteer Fire Department serves the Town of Andover, Connecticut. Andover's firefighters serve a rural community of 3,000 approximately 20 miles east of Hartford. Andover's crews are first-due to a portion of "Suicide 6," a busy local road that is the site of many serious accidents annually, often necessitating the use of mutual aid, and a summer camp run by a local television station. Andover's firefighters also provide ambulance service to the town.
