The Pocahontas area is protected by 26 firefighters, 3 fire stations, 1 aerial ladder truck, 4 pumper trucks, 2 Tanker trucks, 2 rescue trucks, and a Decon level Hazmat Trailer.  The truck the chief drives is also stocked with rescue tools including the jaws of life.


There are nine Full time firefighters. Eight full time firefighters rotate 24 hour shifts to cover station 2 and station 3, working 24 hours on duty then 72 hours off.  Station one which is centrally located at city hall is manned by the Fire Chief during the day.  This is where the Chief's office is located. 

The remaining firefighters are all part time / volunteer firefighters.  Several of the Retired firefighters not listed are still very helpful at the fires.
