LENOIR, NC (December 3, 2017)… Valmead Fire Rescue announced AJ Musto as Officer of the year and Matt Tester as Fireman of the year at their annual Christmas Party. “A firefighter’s leadership, training and technical ability are tested each and every day”, said Chief Yates, “both these men not only associate with a great fire department, but they make this fire department great!” These men (along with many others) put their lives on the line to serve and protect this community.
