The Central Coventry Fire District has been consistently in the news over the past few years for multiple reasons. Most recently, the Central Coventry Fire District found itself in the news regarding an issue with the American flag.

Last year, Central Coventry Fire District Board Chairman, Fred Gralinski, publicly said that firefighters were like animals and terrorists. Gralinski is no stranger to using derogatory terms to describe firefighters. He has also called them thugs and yahoos. Gralinski also stated that the firefighters looked like ISIS with flags on the back of their trucks. According to Gralinski, having a big American flag on the back of the truck is un-American. Gralinski asked for the flags to be taken off of the trucks.

In a meeting last week, a policy was implemented that calls for any decals or stickers to be approved by the Fire Chief before being put on the trucks because the trucks are owned by the district. There was no mention of flags or decals that are currently on the trucks.
