A Fond du Lac firefighter is in Florida to help with relief efforts. Fire Chief Pete O’Leary says firefighter/paramedic Brett Hefty has been deployed to Florida with the Wisconsin Army National Guard. O’Leary says the fire department and city support Hefty and others who answer the call. “I think it will be well received, all these soldiers from all over the country that are going to come and rebuild and get these people back to work so they can get back in their homes,” O’Leary told WFDL news. Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s deputy Tom Van Buren has also been deployed to Florida with the Army National Guard.
