Your A_V_Firefighters on C Shift started their day off with a small commercial fire in an abandoned building. The fire was determined to be started by a warming fire inside the structure. Medic Engines 331, 332, 334 along with Medic Truck 336, Medic Squad 337 and Battalion Chief 4610 had the fire under control in approximately 4 minutes. All crews returned with no issues.

November 1988, Darrell Herington was hired by the Apple Valley Fire Protection District as a Paid Call Firefighter. In January 1991 he was part of 6 firefighters that were hired full time. They became known, at the time as the "cardiac six" as their medical stress test all came back with cardiac issues. The chances of all six having the same cardiac issue was slim, a retest was done and everyone was medically cleared. Captain Herington promoted through the ranks of full time Firefighter and Engineer and then Captain in 2007. His leadership and dedication to the Fire Service was shown in his commitment to teaching thousands of recruits and probationary Firefighters throughout his career both through the Fire Academy and his position at Apple Valley Fire. You could always tell when Captain Herington was upset by his high stepping, arms swinging march, a sight you were sure to see if you left crumbs in the butter. Captain Herington will become officially retired from the Apple Valley Fire Protection District after more than 31 years of service to our citizens Today, December 24th, 2019. Your A_V_Firefighters wish Captain Herington well in this next chapter. We'll keep the coffee warm Darrell.
