    In addition to performing all the tasks of a firefighter, fire service engineers are responsible for driving fire apparatus (fire engines), ensuring apparatus are in a ready status, and performing pump operations to supply water on a fire scene.  In addition, engineers automatically perform the duties of a captain in the absence of the captain.  It is always an honor to support and watch Firefighters advance through the ranks.
