In this episode, Henry and I talk to the legend who inspired this podcast. R.C. “Tiny” Dawson is a retired Deputy Chief from Henrico’s Division of Fire. His visit to Station 21 last year to take a look at a new Haz Mat Unit was a glimpse into the past for the crew that was on duty that day, and now we’ve captured some of that in this podcast.
Chief Dawson talks about how he got started in the fire service, how an incident on I-64 got him thinking about how the department should handle hazardous materials, and where the blueprint for that team came from.
