Earlier this week, we had the privilege of swearing in Volunteer Firefighter SiriNarayan Khalsa.

Firefighter Khalsa has been a member of North Lincoln Fire & Rescue for nearly two years. During that time, he has earned his Firefighter 1 certification, become licensed as an EMT, and has been an active member of our Water Rescue Team since joining the District.

His mom was there to pin on his badge during the ceremony. She shared how incredibly proud she and her husband are of SiriNarayan and all that he has accomplished.

We are proud to have SiriNarayan as part of the NLFR family and look forward to seeing all that he will continue to accomplish. Congratulations, Firefighter Khalsa! 🚒
