A 1,000-gallon pumper truck is the newest addition to the Lebanon Fire Department, reports The Wilson Post.

Nearly two years ago, the Lebanon City Council approved the purchase. The pumper will allow firefighters to begin attacking a structure or automobile fire. The new truck should be ready for service in a couple of weeks as compatible radio equipment needs to be installed along with LFD safety equipment.
