Fort Stewart firefighters recently used their specialized lifesaving skills and training to rescue a Tattnall County maintenance worker from a 135-foot tall water tower in Cobbtown after he collapsed while repairing it May 21.
The installation's Special Rescue Team-a rescue truck, a 105-foot platform truck, and six firefighters-was dispatched upon the county's request to assist in the rescue of the 21-year-old county employee.
