Title
Congratulations to Captain Jesus Acevedo, recipient of the City of Coral Gables "Firefighter of the Month Award," for the month of March 2015.
Body
Captain Jesus Acevedo has been selected March's Firefighter of the Month for his outstanding display of individual initiative, specifically his hard work and dedication in his new position as Logistics Captain.    Captain Acevedo is responsible for everything from the maintenance of Fire apparatus and equipment to ordering uniforms and paper towels for the stations.  In the short time that he has worked in Logistics, he has worked with the Automotive Department to shorten down time for Fire apparatus; he has worked with our uniform vendors to improve quality and speed up the turnaround time for uniform requests.  
 
Captain Acevedo has been a tremendous morale boost for our department and we are fortunate to have him in this new role.
