    On June 17, 2019, MCLB Barstow Fire and Emergency Services held a badge pinning ceremony marking the promotion of three of our members: Craig Posey (Operations Chief), Timothy Yonta (Fire Captain), and Ryan Hanify (Fire Captain).

    It was a very special day for the MCLB Barstow FES as well as for these individuals who are moving up. All went through an extensive hiring process and those selected are great leaders and will make positive impact to our organization.

    Their families, friends, outside agencies, colleagues, Col. Craig C. Clemans, commanding officer, MCLBB; Lt. Col. Timothy Silkowski, executive officer, MCLBB; Danny Strand, director, Security and Emergency Services ; and even former fire Chief Thomas Thompson attended to congratulate them on their promotions and participated in the pinning of the new badges.

    To embrace the ceremony of the “badge pinning” there was a very special step: the member being promoted invites a special person (s) to assist in pinning of the badge. The individual might be a spouse, child, a family member, a friend, or a mentor. It’s a big day for family as well as for the member being promoted.
