Dover Fire Department (Delaware)

== History==
In 1882, seventeen men met at the Odd Fellows Hall, one dollar was collected from each man present and the Robbins Hose Company was born. The City of Dover is unique, as it the only capital city in the US that is still protected by a 100% volunteer fire department.
