Newport Rescue has been serving the Village of Newport and surrounding areas for over two decades with volunteers. Newport Rescue is an vital part of the community to which it serves.

The Newport Vol. Rescue use to be a member of Giles Rescue and was known as the "H" crew. The town of Newport wanted to become a village, but in order to do so they needed there own fire dept. and rescue squad. the town went to what use to be Giles Rescue station 2 "The H Crew" and ask if they could form there own squad seperant from Giles Rescue. 7 members from the H crew went to Captain Steve Davis of Giles Rescue and explained what they was wanting to do, Captain Davis gave his blessing and those 7 members from the old H crew became the founding members of what is now Newport Vol. Rescue Squad Inc. those members were:

* Buford "Boots" Belcher
* Norris Stiff
* J.C. Link
* Ralph Stump
