RCFR Assistant Chief Josh Sanders said that Firefighter Austin Hill was one of the first full-time hires when the County Fire Department was formed. Hill has continuously shown dedication to the Department including recruitment of new firefighters as well as taking ownership of his duties. Hill will often do research on his own time to better the department.
