The Prince George's County Fire/Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Department recently conducted Graduation Ceremonies for Career Recruit School #52.

"I am confident, that many of tomorrow’s leaders sit

The Memorial Award is a very special recognition presented to an outstanding individual 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.
