Several Morningside Alumni’s got together for a little catching up. This is an excerpt from their Facebook Post about it…

“Wow, what a great day, Sunny in the 70s, and meeting up with a guy we haven’t seen in 40+ years. All of us are past members of the Morningside VFD. We represent a time from the late 60s, to the early 70s. Seated Left to Right are Greg Wakeman (Haven’t seen in 40+ years) Retired Virginia Beach FD Va….. Wade Mahaffey Retired Fairfax County Va FD… Joe Rainwater Retired Washington DCFD, and Ronnie Bivens Retired Prince Georges County Md FD. What great stories we shared today about running Emergency Fire & Rescue calls throughout Southern Prince Georges County….and much more! And, as with any gathering of FD folks… a whole lot of laughs about what went on around the Firehouse in between calls. “The Little Firehouse That Could” “And the men in that Firehouse that WOULD!” This was the “Go To” Fire Truck (Squad) in all of PG County back in the 60s and 70s, running calls in all five Southern Maryland Counties, Prince Georges, Charles, Calvert, Anne Arundel, and St. Marys, as well as Fairfax and Prince George Counties in Virginia. THIS WAS THE RIG TO BE ON IF YOU WANTED TO SEE IT ALL!”
