When a fourth generation, fireman from Wake Village Station Texas asked the Oakland Fire Department for a ride, the members of the Oakland Fire Department responded with a big YES. Firefighter Justin Woodward wanted to surprise his grandfather, Les Woodward (over 50 years with OFD). The members of Oakland Co 1 and Co 2 slightly altered a planned drill to include providing assistance to Justin in surprising his grandfather. The plan was simple, the members of Oakland Fire Department would "stop by" at the Woodward estate and wish Les a Happy New Year. Justin would be included in the crowd of fireman. The plan was a success, Les was pleasantly surprised.
