  1. Batt1-4 is One of the Deputy Chiefs. Car2 is the car the DC utilizes and also the radio designation of the DC's Aid. Sometimes they shorten Battalion blank to Battalion because usually there is only one working at a time.

    Signal 211 is the National Standard Signal and is used to signify Flag Raising and Lowering (more or less)

    Signal 2-2-2 is the pay signal and is not used anymore.

    Signals 123 and 124 are snow chains on and off respectively.


  2. What? I don't post in months, but then I post in defense of u guys and a mod deletes it. What gives? Lol...you know what I wrote is true. But I'll repharse it a little nicer.

    X233,

    You're grasp of the English language is lacking. Several does not mean Seven. Also Seth is not begging he is stating a fact. The site costs money and he needs help to pay for it so you can come on here and post snarky comments.

  3. First: Hastings to Pelham on Mapquest/Google etc... is approx 11 miles, so stop blowing up the numbers to serve whatever your cause is.

    Second: You're posing as a career firefighter somewhere, but drive to work everyday on the Hutch and see this vehicle everyday. I don't know many firefighters who go to work everyday, but maybe you're different...

    Third: Is this chiefs vehicle parked on the side of the Hutch, because your profile shows that you work in New Haven, CT. So, while you go to work everyday in New Haven, CT you exit the Hutch in Pelham/Mount Vernon to look around and then get back on northbound I guess... Good bagel and coffee shop around there I guess?!

    I question your integrity and your cause. Good luck with your posts.

    OK I'm not getting in the middle of all this but......he is not making it up!! I live on the Pelham/NR border and see this car almost daily.

    Ok I'm done...


  4. There is only one exam for Public Safety Dispatcher, If you google civil service study guides or check your local book store there are books out there. I do not recall if there is one that is specific to dispatching. I know there are Firefighter and Police Officer books. The dispatcher exam covers a little bit of everything from map reading, listening comprehension, Reading comprehension. Some Common Sense type questions. The Dutchess County Personnel office may have something as well. Any Questions I will be glad to assist. X129K will also i'm sure as well. Chris Bodin

    Take it from a guy who has taken multiple dispatcher tests over the years.....If you have common sense you can pass. Just pay attention to the details!


  5. Technically they aren't certified police officers yet. About 2 years ago DCJS made post academy field training a part of the curriculum. I think they need to do something like 5 or 6 weeks more training to be certified.

    All I can say is.....THAT IS BULLPOOP!!!
