Beaver Dam Fire Chief Alan Mannel accepted the “Call of the Year” award from Flight For Life Wednesday night for his department’s quick response to a November 2016 crash. “It’s something you guys should never have to go through again,” said Jayce Commo, professional relations with Flight For Life. Commo told the fire department that the response won in a landslide. He said that what made this call stand out was that Beaver Dam called Flight For Life on the way to the scene of the crash making the extrication and treatment take less time.
