The Bradley Fire Department was
established in 1892.In the beginning fire personnel were alerted
about fires by loud sirens that would sound throughout the village.
When technology advanced the fire personnel’s home phone
then began to ring to notify them of emergencies. This system is
known as the ‘fire phone.’ The phone constantly rings
until picked up and the dispatcher is heard over the phone line.
Today all personnel carry a fire pager, but the Bradley Fire Department
has also continued the tradition of the ‘fire phone.’
The Bradley Fire Department has had its share
of historic fires and incidents. The command system was used in
each of these events and kept all personnel safe.
