PVFC will also be dedicating Squad 322, our brand-new state-of-the-art 2010 Spartan Gladiator/Rosenbauer rescue truck that will serve the community for many years to come.  Squad 322 is a multiple function piece of fire apparatus designed to provide the specialized equipment necessary for technical rescue situations such as auto accidents requiring extrication of victims with the “Jaws of Life”, building collapses, confined space or rope rescues, industrial accidents, stuck occupied elevators, etc.  PVFC is the only volunteer fire company in Baltimore County with an active Confined Space Team and Squad 322 is the team’s primary response vehicle.  The rescue squad is also the company’s primary response piece on auto accidents and responds on fire calls as well.
