🔥 TIFMAS DEPLOYMENT UPDATE 🔥
At the request of the Texas Intrastate Fire Mutual Aid System (TIFMAS), Reeves County Emergency Services District No. 1 deployed Engineer Tyler Raynes on August 5.
Tyler is serving as a Strike Team Leader Trainee assigned to Strike Team 186. Since its deployment, the team has maintained an active operational role, responding to numerous wildfires across North Central Texas, including:
• Sleepy Fire — Palo Pinto County
• Blue Jay Fire — Archer County
• Bufford Fire — Stephens County
TIFMAS allows Texas fire departments to mobilize qualified personnel and resources to assist communities during major emergencies. These deployments strengthen statewide response capabilities while providing valuable experience that benefits our personnel and the communities we serve at home.
We are proud of Tyler’s commitment, professionalism, and willingness to serve wherever he is needed. Please join us in thanking him and all members of Strike Team 186 for their continued service.
A huge shout out to our friends at AeroCare 10 for allowing our fire cadets to stop by their base and get some hands on training.
It's Medic Monday!!!
Meet Paramedic Robert Hutson, a member of A-Shift assigned to Station 4!
Paramedic Hutson has been in EMS for eight years and has spent the last two and a half years serving with Reeves County ESD No. 2. His story started a long way from West Texas; he was born in Romania and moved to Rhode Island when he was just 11 months old. Today, Paramedic Hutson lives in Lubbock with his wife, Liz, and their two children, Preston and Payton.
Off duty, family time is a priority. Paramedic Hutson enjoys traveling with his family, riding his motorcycle, and escaping to one of their favorite destinations, Winter Park, Colorado.
When asked what he enjoys most about working at Reeves County ESD No. 2, his answer is simple: the people. To Paramedic Hutson, the people he works alongside have become another family.
If he ever decided to trade in his paramedic uniform for a completely different life, you might find him in northern Montana. His alternate career plan? Become a rancher.
After eight years in EMS, Paramedic Hutson knows the career isn't always easy. His advice to future paramedics is to understand that while the job can be difficult, it is also incredibly rewarding; especially having the opportunity to help people on some of the worst days of their lives.
Paramedic Hutson also tries to live by one of the best pieces of advice he's received: Life gets easier when you stop worrying about what others think. Be your own person, and don't let others drive your beliefs.
