Kolekcionar vatrogasnog znakovlja

U ljeto 1928. godine izbio je veliki požar na dvije obiteljske kuće u Čačincima u kojem su izgorjele gospodarske zgrade i to je bio povod da mještani Čačinaca počnu razmišljati o osnivanju vatrogasnog društvu. Vrlo brzo je društvo i osnovano, a službeno registrirano početkom siječnja 1929. pa se ta godina uzima kao službena godina osnivanja našeg društva. Od samih početaka do danas društvo je više nego aktivno, kroz godine smo nabavljali potrebna vozila i opremu, sukladno vremenu se modernizirali, a 1934. izgrađen je i prvi vatrogasni dom. Posebno sam ponosan na naš današnji, novi vatrogasni dom koji je izgrađen 2005. godine prema mom nacrtu. Zahvaljujem se svim vatrogascima koji su kroz povijest čuvali i danas čuvaju ovu našu humanu organizaciju i čine ju velikim ponosom svoga mjesta i Virovitičko-podravske županije – rekao je predsjednik Ileš zahvaljujući čijem sjećanju i napornom radu je očuvana arhiva ovoga društva.

In the summer of 1928, a large fire broke out in two family houses in Čačinci, in which outbuildings burned down, and this was the reason why the locals of Čačinci started thinking about founding a fire brigade. The company was founded very quickly, and was officially registered at the beginning of January 1929, so that year is taken as the official year of the founding of our company. From the very beginning until today, the company is more than active, over the years we have procured the necessary vehicles and equipment, modernized in accordance with the times, and in 1934 the first fire station was built. I am especially proud of our present-day, new firehouse that was built in 2005 according to my design. I thank all the firefighters who have preserved this humane organization throughout history and make it a great pride of their place and Virovitica-Podravina County - said President Ileš, thanks to whose memory and hard work the archives of this society have been preserved.
