"Chariots of Fire" Now Available!

During the SC Firefighters' Fire-Rescue Conference in Myrtle Beach this month, many of you asked us for a copy of the "Chariots of Fire" mural that appears on the rear wing of the "Never Forget" Camaro.

The mural depicts five generations of Charleston fire engines, featuring a 1882 steamer fire engine and Engine 6, now running out of the Cannon Street fire house. The mural emphasizes our Team's theme, "Memories of the Past, Visions of the Future", which is intended to honor the Charleston 9 and all of our retired firefighters who dedicated their lives to serving the citizens of our community and to recognize the contributions of our current firefighters who are the future of our department.

Prints of the mural are now available, 9" by 25", printed on high quality paper and suitable for framing, by contacting Gerald Mishoe at gerald@scfirefighters.org or by calling (843) 609-8300. The cost of the print, including shipping, is $ 25.00. All proceeds from the sale of these prints will go to the "Raising Engine 11" project.

Remembering the Charleston 9

From July 15-18, we were honored to participate in the South Carolina State Firefighters' Association's Annual Conference in Myrtle Beach. We had a booth in the exhibit hall displaying the "Never Forget" Camaro as we honored the Charleston 9. It was heartwarming to speak to all who were concerned about the Charleston Fire Department and to hear them express their respect and gratitude for the sacrifices of our fallen heroes.

"Never Forget" Camaro T-Shirts Now Available!

Team Misfire Racing is now offering t-shirts of their "Never Forget" Camaro to support the completion of the "Raising Engine 11" project. Engine 11 is a 1961 Mack from the Charleston Fire Department that was retired in 1991 and sat in storage until last year when it was acquired by the Charleston Firefighter Support Team. It is being restored in honor of all members, past and present, of the Charleston Fire Department. It will be used by the Support Team in their community outreach programs as a tribute to the contributions our firefighters make to the community on a daily basis. Anyone interested in a t-shirt can contact Gerald Mishoe by e-mail at gerald@scfirefighters.org or by phone at (843) 609-8300.
