DESCRIPTION:Tales of a Cedar Rapids Firefighter (1920-1955)
The Carl &amp; Mary Koehler History Center
Saturday\, March 16\, 2013     10:30 a.m. at the History Center
Free for History Center Members / $5 for non-members

Join the History Center’s Jim White as he tells the story of his father\,  James Barton White\, a firefighter for the City of Cedar Rapids for 35  years. Upon transcribing his father’s letters\, Jim found a wealth of his  father’s subtle humor about the life in the   station houses as  equipment and procedures changed over the years.  J.B.(as he was called)  worked about every job in the field.  He started out as a ladderman\,  drove all sizes of trucks\, drove the chief\, and in his last years served  as radio dispatcher.

This presentation will delight those who are fascinated by firefighting and the history of Cedar Rapids.

Call (319)362-1501 ext. 11 or email office@historycenter.com for reservations.

Admission is free for History Center Members and $5 for non-members.
