    KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany – Nine firefighters were promoted during a ceremony held at Rhine Ordnance Barracks Jan. 31.

    Paul Jung, Daniel Pommel, Ulf Buerger, Jochen Scherdel, and Alexander Wagner were promoted from firefighters to the position of crew chiefs.

    Martin Hofmann, Thomas Heinrich, Yves Haas, and Thorsten Preyer were promoted from crew chiefs to the position of station chiefs.

    Lt. Col. David Castillo, director of Emergency Services, U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz, and Gerald Adams, fire chief, USAG Rheinland-Pfalz, presented the certificates.

    Col. Reid Furman, USAG Rheinland-Pfalz, provided remarks.

    “In the Army, we reward performance,” said Furman. “But we promote because of potential, for the things that we know you are going to be able to do.”

    USAG Rheinland-Pfalz is looking to hire more personnel to fill emergency services positions. This is a great opportunity for local nationals who want to make a difference in their community. A local national is defined as someone that is not American, has lived in Germany for at least one year and is a German citizen or has an EU work visa. The next recruiting event is scheduled for Feb. 11 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Ramstein Congress Center.
