MAIN FIRE HOUSE
Socorro Hose Co on Fisher St. the two story part is the old original, and the rest are new additions. Remember the new La France pumper that we got about 1946?, it was topless, and pure white with gold leaf trim, what a beauty. Remember the Chief, old Percy Miller, he was a side-show at fireS, he would really get into the theatrics. The Siren was in the top story in the tower, and they sounded it for meetings, and fires to call the volunteers. The siren also was sounded for an off then on again curfew for us night wandering juveniles. BC
