Description
Oakmont Volunteer Firemen stand with a restored 1927 hose cart. Early on, Oakmont firemen fought fire with three hose carts from 1903-1921, when a Nash 1921 fire engine was purchased. Accounts vary as to when the fire department was founded. A group organized in 1907 as volunteer firemen, and then reorganized within the borough in 1921.
