Monday night we officially promoted two volunteer Firefighters to the rank of volunteer Lieutenant. The two newly pinned Lieutenants are Brooke Brown and Damian Peters. Brooke became a volunteer firefighter in 2005 out of the Gales Creek Station as well as an intern and temporary firefighter at the Forest Grove Station. She achieved her degree in Fire Science from PCC in 2009 and is currently working on her Paramedic degree. Damian became a volunteer and intern at the Forest Grove Station in 2008 and just recently received his fire science degree from Chemeketa Community College, where he was a Cadet Captain for his class. Brooke and Damian are also graduates of the joint Forest Grove High School and FGF&R Cadet Program, which Damian is the current instructor of the 2010-2011 Class. Both Lieutenants look forward to serving the citizens of the Forest Grove and Gales Creek communities. The members of FGF&R congratulate Brooke and Damian on the promotion.
