Ahhh yes the work of the great willy d. I know him from another board and he is a great guy, a guy I am lucky enough to call a friend.

It's a great book, great photos and alot of information. I polished it off in couple of days. Different from his other books there is alot of high quality color photos.

Willy Bridgeport a few years ago had gotten a boat similar to Milfords marine 1 and Branfords marine 5. It is a great upgrade from what they used to run. If I am correct the crew from engine 3 is the primary crew for the boat.

Bastrop fire- still 0% contained.

Here's a video of some firefighter doing a controlled burn. Also some good apparatus footage.

Seth thanks for posting that video it really shows how's dry it is out there and how fast a small fire will spread in those conditions. Stay safe

The ford engine looks like Jefferson New Hampshires old engine 1

Joe would that have been a yellow alf by any chance?

I actually just read in the blotter section of the new haven register that some guy drank this and woke up on a couch and started strangling people because they were trying to " light him on fire". He also broke out the front bay windows of a house and his car. This stuff sounds pretty nasty. I'm not in the ems field but I can deffinitly see problems even on a typical activated alarm and being confronted with a violent drunk that's been drinkng this.

seth its a decent show. not only does it showcase the DOT drivers it also shows the avalance team at work figuring out when and where they will happen and trying to set them off puposly with explosives and such.

Joe the east end put a team in this year so ill be down there.

Stratford had one

I went to the services today and I have to say Waterbury and fdny did a tremendous job with the services. It was a very sobering reminder of what can happen at any given time to any one of us. All I can say is I hope and pray that this was the first and last time anything like this will happen.
