Mr. KEAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Westfield Fire Department as they celebrate 150 years of service to our community. Since its founding as a volunteer fire department in 1875, the WFD has grown into a career department, providing essential fire protection services to the residents of Westfield and the surrounding area. Over the past 150 years, they have answered the call in times of need--often under dangerous and demanding conditions--a true testament to the courage, duty, and selflessness that embody the very best of New Jersey's first responders. I extend my deepest congratulations to the Westfield Fire Department on this milestone anniversary and look forward to their continued growth and commitment to public safety for many years to come.
