🔥 Introducing our Union’s February Firefighter of the Month: Captain Dan Kohler 🔥

Fire Captain Dan Kohler has proudly served the West Covina Fire Department since 1995. Captain Kohler was hired on as a Firefighter Paramedic and was assigned to Squad 74 before promoting to Engineer in 2000 and Captain in 2015. Over the years, he’s led department mapping efforts, developed and managed our annual pump test program, served as a paramedic preceptor, and helped strengthen union unity and morale as part of our softball team.

Captain Kohler’s favorite meal to cook at the firehouse is spaghetti pie. A tried and true favorite!

Outside the firehouse, Captain Kohler is a dedicated family man. He and his wife have shared 36 wonderful years of marriage, raised two amazing children, and are now enjoying life as proud grandparents to two. When he’s not at the firehouse, he enjoys attending concerts with his wife, hitting the trails on his mountain bike, playing golf, working on hot rods, and spending summers by the pool or at the beach.

Thank you for three decades of leadership, dedication, and service to our community. 🚒👏

Some of our West Covina Fire Department Union members spent the weekend assisting @wcbeautiful with brush clearance and yard cleanup for a local resident in need.
The goal was to enhance safety, restore access, and clear overgrown brush around the home.

Big thanks to our @wcfdexplorers who came out to help! Your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed.

This is what it means to give back to the community we’re proud to protect. Grateful for the opportunity to support an organization dedicated to keeping #westcovinabeautiful 💪🚒
