Buckatunna, Station 11 is located on Hi-way 45 South in Buckatunna, Mississippi and was the first county department in Wayne County thanks to Mr. Emery Douglass, Beat 1 supervisor at the time and Mr. Clyde Dobson who was our State representative at the time and Mr. Gary Synder who was our first Chief and Fire Coordinator. Our first captain was Mr. David Lee Cambell and the truck was housed in his Texaco station for several years until we got our station built. Our next captain was Mr. Clifton Taylor who held the position until his death at which time I (Marlin Sullivan) became captain for several years, then came Terry Hutto and now our present
captain Mr. Henry Beasley. We have made a lot of progress over the years, we started out with a few good men and a used truck that came from the City of Waynesboro and operated out of the Texaco station. We now have a new three bay station, a brand new pumper, and a 3thousand gallon tanker.
