Arlington County’s Fire Station 8 Honored at a Community Gala!
The John M. Langston Citizen’s Association honored the legacy of the 14 brave African-American men who came together in 1918 to start the Halls Hill Volunteer Fire Department. These men and the others who followed in their footsteps to staff what is now Fire Station 8 deserve our thanks and praise. This event was the community’s way of doing just that.
There is a documentary that will be released in the spring to preserve the history and stories. In the meantime, here are a few pics of the crowd.
Join the mailing list to receive info about the upcoming documentary!
