Story by Staff Sgt. Lindiwe Henry January 27, 2026 at 12:31PM It is 8:30 in the morning, and the scent of grilled bacon, green peppers, onions, omelets, and warm buttered biscuits wafts through the Oldtown Fire Station. Soldiers, firefighters, and paramedics sit around the large table, discussing their current favorite television shows, swapping mission stories, and whatever else floats into conversation. Specialty omelets and breakfast sandwiches sizzle on the black top grill, as Soldiers eagerly await their personally prepared breakfasts, courtesy of Cadet Deandre Wright, who brought his culinary specialist training to Oldtown, also known as the Thomas J. Burke Fire Station.
