Billings Fire Department (Montana)

==History==
Billings Fire Department started out as the Billings Fire Brigade in 1883. Yellowstone Hook and Ladder Company was established in 1886 after an entire block was razed but disbanded in 1888 in anger. 1943 brought some changes to the department when the Billings Fire Prevention Bureau was established.
