Gettysburg Firemen Deny Refusal To Respond To Alarm
Gettysburg Fire Chief Gerald White clarified that the department never refuses alarms. An error by the Adams County Control Center dispatched other towns to a Martin residence chimney fire, while Gettysburg should have responded. Rumors of a refusal were unfounded. Martins were informed and the issue resolved. Ambulance corps reported 1,309 emergency and route calls in 1977, with 6,000 plus volunteer hours and 796 emergency runs.
