Annual Report

2016 HONOR IN SERVICE - ONORE IN SERVIZIO

We Are The Army’s Home

From the Chief

he Department of Army has designated its Fire and Emergency Services program a “mission critical occupation” that is key in

supporting the readiness of our Army while providing an exacting service to our community.

Our community, environment, and program service objects are constantly changing and being put to the test; our goal is to ensure the customer does not feel the effects of program adjustments or the ebb and flow of the budgetary cycles and service outcomes.

2016 was a banner year for our service as a whole. One of the most significant changes that our team endured was the completion of regionalizing the response program. However challenging this endeavor was, the team pulled it off with great success. During this traditional phase in our program, our team also accomplished many firsts: we located the command staff to a central location, increased program efficiency by over 32%, started the remodel of two fire stations, planned the remodel of a third, and partnered with the Vigili del Fuoco to build a training platform that will blend the two service programs together and ensure we provide a fully capable mutual response force for this community. On a larger scale we were able to host LTG Kenneth Dahl, IMCOM Commander, Michael Formica, IMCOM-E Regional Director, and present the business case for our program to Hon Debra S. Wada, Assistant Secretary of the Army, and influence program change at the Army enterprise level.

As the organization closed out 2016 we stayed focused on the core and strategic objectives set forth in 2015. We prepared ourselves for audit readiness, emotional and physical health, family support, and on boarded some of the highest quality Italian and US emergency service professionals. Throughout all of our “highs” last year, our proudest moments came from the internal partnerships and foundation of mutual respect for the blended cultures; this has most certainly proven to be a benefit that supports the overarching programs of our response framework.

In closing, I am honored to present the 2016 Fire and Emergency Services Annual Report to our community and team members; the data, hard work, and accomplishments ahead are only a small illustration of the commitment to our Army community and the mission we support.

We are here for you 24/7, 365 Days a year, we look forward to serving you and your families!

Professional Training

The ultimate goal of the annual training plan is to increase the level of response capability and safety for the firefighters and communities of USAG-I.

It is the mission of U S A G - I F i r e D e p a r t m e n t t o p r o v i d e exceptional risk-related services to o u r c u s t o m e r s . F o l l o w i n g t h e mission statement for the Training Division; It is the mission of the Fire Department Training Division to provide the highest quality of education and training to ensure our personnel can safely and effectively deliver exceptional service,” the focus of all training will continue to be firefighter safety. This mission will be the focus of the objectives for each training topic to ensure that overall firefighter safety is increased as an outcome of each training session not only during training but during emergency response.The 2017 Annual Training Plan establishes the training hours per discipline as well as the objectives for each training session for scheduling and to ensure that training requirements and expectations are met.

Department personnel are trained to meet the risks necessary to perform their duties regardless of the emergency, based upon the minimum requirements of AR 420-1 chapter 25 as its basis. The ATP details the scheduled training topics and objectives for

each month and may be modified as the year progresses to include

o t h e r t r a i n i n g opportunities that are made available or o r g a n i z a t i o n a l d i r e c t i o n s o r capabilities that are i d e n t i f i e d a n d approved. Company training will receive additional emphasis in 2017 in order to further establish its c a p a b i l i t y , s t a n d a r d i z e a l s o

i n c l u d e s t h e established dates and
