Our Mission Statement

Congratulations, Battalion Chief Shawn Dillon!
We’re proud to celebrate the well-deserved promotion of Shawn Dillon to Battalion Chief! His dedication and leadership have made a lasting impact, and we’re excited to see him excel in this new role.
Thank you for your service, Chief Dillon!
#NacogdochesHero #Congratulations #BattalionChief #FirefighterStrongWe’re excited to share with everyone that Captain Shawn Dillon has been promoted to Battalion Chief! Dillon started with the department January 2003 and promoted to Captain June 2012. Over the years he has been in charge of ordering and maintaining the air cylinders that are part of the SCBA everyone uses when they are at the scene of a fire or other hazardous circumstances. He has also stepped up to the position of Battalion Chief when needed and has spent the past few weeks in the position as we’ve gone through this transition to make sure his shift has been covered. We appreciate all the work you’ve done in the meantime and cant wait to see how things go from here. Congratulations!
