Anyone know what time it is on friday?

I know that this topic has always been created but it seems as though the other page is closed. I was wondering, in regards to the BuddyLight, what colors do people suggest? Are each color for different uses or is it just personal preference? Does anyone who owns one have any suggestions??

Or worse think if it could be a person with a serious issue and is waiting for the school to take the bluff a few times then do something terrible. Given all the incidents that have gone on in colleges in the past year, it is possible for something like that to happen at a high school.

While we're on the topic. Mamaroneck High School has had their 4th consecutive evacuation today from school. Supposedly it was a similar threatening message. People are calling it a "bomb scare" but I dont know what they have specifically said. The middle school was also evacuated today for the same reason.

I was just up at Dana road last week and I saw a whole fleet of them. I haven't been up there in a while since last week but it also seemed as though they have a lot of other new vehicles. Does anyone know the specifics on recent deliveries up there?

What color does anyone suggest? Red, White or Blue?

Hey does anyone know why only the passenger side has decals? Is it not completely finished yet?

Nice pics. What is the "TracHorse" unit used for?

Now on another topic I heard that there was no IC board set up at this fire is there any truth to that statement? I have been told by members of my job that they saw alot of white and red helmets there and everyone they asked there what needed to be done they were told this aint my show I am only here to help. When that many mutual aid depts show up to work it is critical to set up a board and have full control of all companies. Would someone from this fire please correct my statements if they are wrong. I am not starting a war here it is all about the safety of the Brothers.

No, the information that you recieved is definately incorrect. Yes, there was a command board set up, with the IC standing by right next to it.

So lets get back to finding some pictures. I was on scene and I know I saw a volunteer taking some pretty extensive photos. I'm pretty sure he was planning on posting them? Anyone else have any?

Wow. Thanks for sharing JOHN! I wonder how often fire departments need to use hydraulic tools in situations other than during MVA pin jobs. Does anyone else have any other stories?
