An assistant fire chief helps the fire chief carry out the business of running the fire station. Duties include managing other fire officers, assisting firefighters at the scene of a fire, and training new staff recruits. Some may also be asked to help with fire prevention, fire inspections, disaster relief, and other community involvements.
In the fire service, bugles are used as insignia to denote rank. An assistant fire chief is typically represented by two bugles.
A fire Chief is an officer within the structure of a fire department that is normally in charge of the captains, lieutenants, and line firefighters. There are a few levels of chiefs in many departments. There are Assistant Chiefs, Deputy Chiefs, and then the Chief.

Mr. Carl Williams
Assistant Chief of the Air Staff was created in 1985.
The ranks in a fire department can vary depending on the organization and location, but common ranks include Firefighter, Lieutenant, Captain, Battalion Chief, Assistant Chief, Deputy Chief, and Chief. These ranks generally indicate a progression in responsibility and leadership within the department.
The size of the department and its structure will determine the ranks of the fire fighting force. In the US, we generally see it like this from the fire fighter up the chain of command. We start with a fire fighter, then go to lieutenant, captain, battalion chief, assistant chief and chief of the department. Certainly there is a lot of room for other ranks, particularly at the top of larger departments. Assistant chiefs can have different responsibilities, like the assistant chief who is the Chief of Training. Additionally, different jobs can be conducted by individuals of different ranks. A fire investigator might be a lieutenant or a captain, depending on the department. The officer on an engine might be a captain, a lieutenant or even a senior firefighter. In smaller departments, someone who is effectively a captain and wearing a pair of bugles on his collar might be the highest ranking fire fighter on the force, and he is considered the chief. Variations will appear from one department or fire district to another.
