BATTLE GROUND — After Jerry Yung took a motorcycle trip around the United States with his son Greg in 2010, he decided that retirement could be fun. Yung, who has been a battalion chief for the past 15 years for the Vancouver Fire Department, last at Sifton Fire Station 4, retired on Dec. 31, 2010. Jung fought fires for 31 years and was injured once in the line of duty when he fell through a roof. His retirement plans include riding his Harley more, spending time with his four grandchildren and taking his wife, Debi, to visit zoos around the United States and maybe to her top choice, the Auckland Zoo in New Zealand.
