Today, we remember PBFD Lieutenant Russell Jones, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty on April 1, 1985.

Lt. Jones was a dedicated firefighter, a brother, and a protector of his community. His courage and commitment to the job left a lasting impact on the Poquonnock Bridge Fire Department and all who serve.

Lt. Jones holds the solemn distinction of being PBFD’s first Line of Duty Death a reminder of the risks firefighters face every day and the sacrifice that comes with the badge.

We honor his legacy, his service, and his sacrifice.
Never Forgotten.

Last night, members of Local 2704 responded to a working fire at the Ramada Inn on Kings Highway.

Crews arrived to find smoke showing from the side of the building, with smoke conditions present on all three floors of the occupied structure. Groton Police were already on scene assisting with evacuations. Firefighters quickly went to work conducting searches, stretching lines, and coordinating ventilation while bringing the fire under control.

Due to the size and occupancy of the building, a second alarm was transmitted, bringing multiple mutual aid companies to the scene.

The members of the Poquonnock Bridge Professional Firefighters Union proudly stand shoulder to shoulder with our brothers and sisters of the City of Groton Fire Department as they advocate for the additional staffing their department needs.

This is about firefighter safety.
This is about protecting the community.
This is about making sure that when someone calls 911, enough trained professionals are arriving to handle the emergency safely and effectively.

Staffing saves lives, both the public’s and ours.

We strongly encourage our members, families, and community supporters to show up and make your voices heard.

Your presence matters. Your support matters. When we stand together, we are stronger.

As you're shoveling out after the storm, please take time to clear your fire hydrants from snow. Every second counts in a fire. This evening, we've responded to two structures within the Town of Groton. Units are currently operating at the second fire in the Noank Fire District. Be safe.
