The Prince George’s County Fire/Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Department conducted a graduation ceremony for 59 firefighter recruits on Thursday, September 1, 2011. The graduation was held at the Charles Herbert Flowers auditorium and was well attended by families, friends, elected leaders and Departmental personnel. Speakers included County Executive Rushern L. Baker III, Councilmember Andrea Harrison, Fire Chief Marc Bashoor with a keynote address from William “Billy” Goldfeder. Goldfeder's son, Brian, is a graduate of CRS #43 and a recipient of the Fire Chief's Award.
After the presentation of Certificates of Achievements by County Executive Baker and Fire Chief Bashoor to the graduates additional special achievement awards were presented.
The Emergency Medical Technician Scholastic Achievement Award is presented to an individual who achieved the highest academic average on the emergency medical technician written examinations and practical evolutions.
The Fire Suppression Scholastic Achievement Award is presented to an individual in each Career Recruit School who achieved the highest academic average on the fire suppression written examinations and practical evolutions.
The Instructor’s Award is presented to an individual in each Career Recruit School who has shown the highest level of personal improvement, development, and dedication during the class. In short, we identify the recruit who has contributed significantly to the success of the class overall either by helping others or through self-improvement. The individual earning this award can be one with no previous experience in emergency services and progresses to an outstanding level of proficiency; or an experienced person who dedicates him or herself to assisting other class members be successful throughout Recruit School.
The Memorial Award is a very special recognition presented to an outstanding recruit from each Career Recruit School who has displayed that rarest combination of professionalism, courage, and "espirit de corps." Such traits serve to honor their fallen comrades, and uphold the highest traditions of the Prince George’s County Fire/Emergency Medical Services Department.
