Add three new pieces of fire equipment to the Olive Branch Fire Department arsenal as the new equipment was recently unveiled. Truck 3 is a 100-foot Mid-Mount Pierce Mfg.  Ascendant platform built on an Enforcer chassis, which will replace Truck 1 at Station 3 on Hacks Cross Road.

Both of these vehicles were delivered to the Olive Branch department by Emergency Equipment Professionals in Horn Lake.
