South Milwaukee (Officially) Has A New Fire Chief

Knitter small 1It was a pleasure attending the swearing-in ceremony of new South Milwaukee Fire Chief Joe Knitter on Friday.

And I was far from alone. More than 100 people — including Joe’s family and dozens of firefighters from around the area and as far away as California — officially welcomed him to his new role.

I join them in that welcome.

This is a great choice, and I look forward to Joe’s tenure as chief. Congratulations!

    The city did make an excellent choice!

    I am glad to have attended my Instructor/ Friend and fellow Brother in firefighting swearing in ceremony.

    Here’s to more years on top of your 27 years already served Chief.
