Welcome to International Association of Fire Fighters, Local F-102. We are the voice, body, and soul of the Federal Fire Fighters of Naval Air Station Lemoore located in the central valley south of Fresno, California. The International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) is a brotherhood of fire fighters from across the nation, and the world. The IAFF is broken into 16 distinct Districts, each under the leadership of a District Vice President. The 16th District contains all federal fire fighter bargaining units worldwide. These include military and DoD installations as well as wildland fire fighters. Our IAFF affiliation began on the 6th of May 1964. The bargaining unit is comprised of professional career fire fighters, engineers, captains, and prevention inspectors. We are employed by the Department of Defense/Navy functioning under the Navy Region Southwest, which encompasses all naval installations in California and Nevada. This department responds to aircraft, structural, haz-mat, rescue, medical, and various other emergencies. We are trained in wildland fire fighting and confined space rescue. Housed in two geographically separated fire stations, fire fighters can respond anywhere on base within five minutes or less. A recent initiative has begun to expand our mutual aid capabilities to the surrounding communities. This may include a joint haz-mat response, urban search and rescue, and possibly technical/specialized rescue teams. The prevention staff inspects over 2 million square feet of facilities, nearly 1700 base housing units, and 1500 fire extinguishers. They also educate base personnel and the public in fire and life safety matters. Check them out in the Photo Gallery. Our MissionStrength through united action, guided by intelligence is the hallmark of the trade union organization. Believing such unity essential for the mutual protection and advancement of the interests and general welfare of the Federal Fire Fighter, Fire Captain or Fire Inspector hired at Naval Air Station Lemoore (excerpt from Preamble).
