The Loudoun Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Management was greeted this week with an upheaval in Middleburg that has left the government scrambling to cover volunteer positions.Five volunteer firefighters in the Middleburg Volunteer Fire Department, including its fire chief, have resigned within the past week. While there has been no official confirmation, the resignations may be connected to an investigation being conducted by the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office.Paul Draisey, treasurer of the company, said Doug Rambo, head of the Fire-Rescue Commission, approached the company two weeks ago about two incidents that “were of concern.” No details have been revealed about what the incidents might be, or whether, in fact, any illegal activities have occurred.
