==History==
The Presidio Fire Department (US Army) was established in 1917 to provide fire protection for the Presidio of San Francisco. As part of a 1989 military reduction program under the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process, the Presidio's status as an active military installation of the US Army was ended. Effective October 1, 1994, the Presidio Fire Department and staff was transferred from the Department of the Army to the National Park Service and became the only full-time fire department within the National Park Service, as part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. On August 27, 2010, responsibility for fire protection was transferred once again to the San Francisco Fire Department under a contract for service. SFFD now operates out of Station 1, renumbered as SFFD Station 51. On November 10, 2010, former Presidio Fire Station Station 2 was closed by the NPS.
