Ambulance A-1 (1980s)

~1985 Ford E-350 / MedTec Ambulance

(Exact year unknown)

This ambulance was likely built on a Ford E-350 chassis and outfitted with a MedTec Type III modular ambulance body, a widely used and dependable configuration for EMS operations during the mid-1980s. The box-style aluminum body, emergency lighting, and layout reflected the standard design and capabilities of ambulances in service during that era.

At the time this unit was in service, ambulance services were provided by the Pocomoke City Volunteer Fire Company. The ambulance supported emergency medical response for the City of Pocomoke and surrounding areas through 1996, when EMS operations transitioned into a separate entity known as Pocomoke City Emergency Medical Services. While the exact year of manufacture and specific service dates for this ambulance are unknown, its use represents an important period in the evolution of emergency medical services within the Pocomoke community.
