Duty Honor Commitment
The NNSS F&R Benevolent Association supports several charities, organizations and events. These organizations support burn survivors, the fight against cancer, school supply drives, toy drives and various other needs which arise annually. We mentor school aged children by providing school visits to discuss careers in the Fire Service. The members of the NNSS F&R BA also volunteer during Fire Prevention Month. We visit multiple schools and teach Fire Prevention and what to do in case of an emergency. Giving back to our community and volunteering to assist others is a large part of what we do.
Tradition and Service
The NNSS F&R BA Honor Guard is comprised of active members of NNSS F&R. Our Honor Guard Members work tirelessly to achieve the perfection required to honor the Fire Service. They work closely with other local Honor Guards to assist in funeral services for Line of Duty Death (LODD) for both Firefighters and Police Officers. These tragic events require a tremendous amount of personnel to support the family and agency who lost a member. The Honor Guard also attends several events such as 9/11 ceremonies, parades, Memorial Day events and many other events in honor of public service.

With sadness we pass on the following. Retired NTTR F&R Assistant Fire Chief Joe Hogan passed away last Friday. Chief Hogan served at NTTR from 1978 to 1994. Prior to working at NTTR F&R he served our country in the United States Air Force. While serving in Vietnam as a Firefighter on the HH43 helicopter, he earned many medals and accommodations. When he retired at the rank of Master Sergeant, he was considered one of the most decorated enlisted members at Nellis AFB.
Our thoughts are with his family and especially his granddaughter Adrienne Marchello. Adrienne was our NNSS F&R Administration Assistant several years ago. When Chief Dees was promoted to Fire Chief she brought her grandfather to the ceremony. Many of us had the opportunity to speak with him. He was a very humble, funny and honest person. Rest in Peace Chief. Thank you for your service, you will be missed. ... See MoreSee Less
