After 35 years of service to the Mountain Home community, one of the city's veteran firefighters was named to head the department.

  • I guess it is all about the "Good Old Boy" system in Mtn Home. Not the most qualified person to fill the highest position. Wait a year and we will be doing this again, after he has this position on his resume!
