Entuzijazam osnivača prenosi se na omladinu Komiže, koji zajedničkim snagama prianjaju složnom i odgovornom poslu, da tu na najisturenijoj točki Jadrana, stvore samostalnu i sposobnu vatrogasnu organizaciju. Trebalo je dosta vremena i napora da se stvore uvjeti za normalno djelovanje, da se osiguraju sredstva i postigne afirmacija među stanovništvom otoka. U tim prvim počecima nije bilo mnogo razumijevanja ni podrške od strane odgovornih faktora i privrednih organizacija otoka Visa. I dok su jedni sumnjivo vrtjeli glavama ne vjerujući u uspjeh, dotle su vatrogasni entuzijasti uporno uvjeravali sve i svakoga da je jedna ovakva organizacija neophodna otoku. Takav rad urodio je plodom. Tvornica sardina „Neptun“ prva je širom otvorila svoja vrata vatrogascima Komiže, stoga i nije čudo što je tada gro članstva bio baš iz redova radnika te tvornice. Trebalo je doći do nekoliko uspješnih intervencija društva pa da ono postane najpopularnija organizacija na otoku.
Koncem 1951. Godine na obuku za zapovjednika u Splitu Društvo šalje Milu Mardešića. Društvo nije imalo nikakve opreme i pored moljenja od Podsaveza, preko poduzeća i općine Vis, pomoć u opremi ne dolazi nikakva, a također niti financijska. Dobrovoljno vatrogasno društvo Komiža 1953. Godine dobiva od Podsaveza 20 ljetnih starih radnih odjela i to neodgovarajućih veličina i jedan ručni vatrogasni aparat. Kako je 29. Travnja 1952. formiran I DVD „Neptun“ koji je imao iste probleme kao i DVD Komiža, besparica, nedostatak osobne opreme i tehnike, a sve je to upućivalo na nemogućnost opstanka Upravni odbori obaju društava na zajedničkoj sjednici 7. Veljače 1953. Donose odluku o fuziranju društava u jedno, koje će se zvati Dobrovoljno vatrogasno društvo Komiža. Skromna oprema koju su posjedovali pripala je DVD-u Komiža. Uz pomoć „Neptuna “ , Društvo koristeći regres Saveza, uspijeva nabaviti 17. Ožujka 1953. Godine motornu vatrogasnu pumpu i nešto cijevi. „Neptun“ je također dao sredtva da es naprave kolica za pumpu. Godine 1957. Uz pomoć Saveza i RO „Neptun“ adaptiran je jedan dio zgrade tvornice za potrebe DVD-a Komiža. Godine 1961. Prikupljena su sredstva kojima je kupljen kamion marke Fiat 615-Kragujevac. Upornim radom komiški vatrogasci 1961. Godine sagradili su i vatrogasni dom s tornjem. Bio je to prvi vatrogasni dom na dalmatinskim otocima.
For the purpose of protecting people and property from fire, guided by the fact that the safety of people and property is most rationally achieved by preventive - operational measures, in Komiža on July 18, 1951, in the premises of the cooperative on the Komi waterfront, several enthusiasts who made up the Initiative Committee for the establishment of DVD Komiža

The enthusiasm of the founders is transferred to the youth of Komiža, who join forces in a coherent and responsible task, to create an independent and capable firefighting organization at the most advanced point of the Adriatic. It took a lot of time and effort to create the conditions for normal operation, to secure funds and achieve affirmation among the island's population. In those first beginnings, there was not much understanding or support from the responsible factors and business organizations of the island of Vis. And while some were suspiciously shaking their heads in disbelief in the success, until then the fire enthusiasts persistently convinced everyone and everything that such an organization was necessary for the island. Such work bore fruit. The "Neptun" sardine factory was the first to open its doors wide to Komiža firefighters, so it's no wonder that then the head of the membership was from among the workers of that factory. It took several successful interventions by the society to become the most popular organization on the island. At the end of 1951, the Company sent Milo Mardešić to train as a commander in Split. The company did not have any equipment and despite begging from the Sub-Union, through the company and the municipality of Vis, there is no help with equipment, and also no financial help. In 1953, the Komiža Voluntary Fire Company received from the Confederation 20 old summer working units of inappropriate sizes and one manual fire extinguisher. On April 29, 1952, DVD "Neptun" was formed, which had the same problems as DVD Komiža, lack of money, lack of personal equipment and equipment, all of which pointed to the impossibility of survival. They make a decision to merge the companies into one, which will be called the Voluntary Fire Company of Komiža. The modest equipment they owned belonged to DVD Komiža. With the help of "Neptune", the Society, using the recourse of the Association, manages to acquire a motorized fire pump and some pipes on March 17, 1953. "Neptun" also provided the funds to build a cart for the pump. In 1957, with the help of the Association and RO "Neptun", a part of the factory building was adapted for the needs of DVD Komiža. In 1961, funds were collected to buy a Fiat 615-Kragujevac truck. In 1961, the firefighters of Komi built a fire station with a tower through persistent work. It was the first fire station on the Dalmatian islands.
