Thank You Again Troop 19 Eagle Scout Ian Taylor!

Oakmont Fire Company would once again like to thank Troop 19 Eagle Scout Ian Taylor for his time and dedication in making this flag retirement box. We are proud to announce that it has been placed at the front of our station, between the door and the fallen firefighter memorial.

Flag Retirement Box From Troop 19 Eagle Scout Ian Taylor

Recently, Oakmont Fire Company and Brookline Fire Company each received a flag retirement box from Troop 19 Eagle Scout Ian Taylor. These handmade boxes will provide two new locations for members of our community to properly dispose of any worn, torn, or damaged American flags. We thank Ian for his hard work and dedication to the community. The box at our station will be installed in its permanent location very shortly.
