Sheriff Donates Command Vehicle To Escambia Search And Rescue

January 22, 2015


Escambia County Sheriff David Morgan donated his former command bus to Escambia Search and Rescue on Wednesday.

ESAR volunteers assist emergency responders with search and rescue operations in South Alabama and Northwest Florida. They were working out of an aging and outdated command center.

The Sheriff’s Office donated their former command center to ESAR because of their on-going partnership responding together in searches and natural disasters.  The ECSO purchased a new command center last year using Local Option Sales Tax funds.

    I don’t think a better Agency could have been picked to donate the Command Bus to. These people are all Volunteers and will stay out as long as needed looking for missing kids, adults etc..
