A South Jersey fire company made history Saturday after every crew member on call for a shift was a woman.

According to the volunteers at Union Fire Company, a branch of the Deptford Fire Department, having several females on call at once is normal.

Several of the women became firefighters because it's what their dads did, and they wanted to be part of the family business. "It's been in the family for a long time. We all love doing it for sure," said Megan Thelen, a firefighter.

If I had known about this, I would have been trying to hang out at the fire station on Saturday.

How come there were no BlackWomen in the picture? We shouldn't be celebrating a racist fire department no matter what. -PJ

Thankfully, no men had to be pulled out of a burning building

Ah no some look they will need to be rescued

Who gives one half of one single shit.

I’d care more if they were all trannies
