1961 American Lafrance 900, Columbus Wisconsin.
On April 10, 1922, the Detroit Fire Department made a ceremonial final run of it’s horse-drawn fire apparatuses along Woodward Avenue. Several of the older engines and hose carts, followed by modern trucks, made their way through downtown along Woodward where they were met by the firefighters’ band at the Michigan Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument. The parade lasted a brisk 5 minutes.
Ned, a 14 year veteran, was the most senior member of the department’s four-legged contingent, and was recognized with a special sign during the parade. After the run, he, along with the rest of his team retired to greener pastures on Belle Isle.
