During Black History Month, the Milwaukee Fire Department (MFD) is highlighting the contributions and skills of its members. A recent Milwaukee Fire Department's Facebook post recognized the department’s special teams, which provide specialized support and services beyond traditional firefighting.

The Milwaukee Fire Department is sharing profiles of African American firefighters to acknowledge their role in the city and the department. The department thanked all members for their service to Milwaukee and encouraged the public to follow their social media for more spotlights throughout the month.

The Milwaukee Fire Department emphasizes that its work extends beyond emergency response to include preparation, prevention, and public education, all of which help protect the community.
