Congratulations to the 6 recruits that graduated last Friday night from our 8 week Fire Academy here at AFPD. These recruits were sworn in as probationary firefighters and are starting their new journey within the fire service.
We would like to share with you the video we created for the recruits and their family members to give a glimpse into what they endured over the last 8 weeks. Enjoy!
Our crew at Station 114 Pine Grove had the opportunity to check out a great local fire resource.
The Mount Zion Lookout.

My family lived in the Rangers Residence just down the hill from 1960 until my father’s retirement. Chesley Waklee, Ranger IV, thirty four years with CDF then Cal Fire. Walked up the hill then the stairs many times. What a great place to grow up. Two nephews are carrying on. Zack and Logan Waklee.
Pine Grove and beyond is so very blessed to have Mt. Zion open again..
climbed that a few times.........
Love the view from up there!
Our thoughts and prayers are with the members of the Los Angeles County Fire Department, and the family of the firefighter killed during yesterdays tragic shooting.
AFPD would also like to extend our prayers for a full and speedy recovery to the injured captain and everyone affected by this tragedy.
