THE Visalia California Fire Department said he was suffering from “baby fever” after more than a dozen babies were born to firefighters in the past year.
In a Father’s Day post Sunday, the department said its firefighters welcomed 14 babies in their families – the largest number of VFD members in one year.
“Family is extremely important to us, and this blessing is a true testament to the joy and strength of our fire community,” the department wrote on Facebook.
