LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF) – Lafollette Fire Department Captain Dusty Davis and his C shift firefighters hit the ground running early this morning as they added a touch of color to downtown Lafollette.

As the flags were being placed up and down Central Avenue and the large flag flying off the ladder of Engine 108, people were honking their horns and showing thumbs up to the guys.
