    WPPD has been dispatching for WPFD for at least 15 yrs. They still can't get it right.

    That was a mutual aid drill in Mount Vernon for a supposed incident in the oil storage facility city area of the city. At the time MV was the third largest oil and gasoline storage area on the east coast.
    The rig is Rescue 1, MVFD on an International.

    This was the brainchild of a former chief and current DPW commissioner. Strictly a penny pinching move.
    Junk from the first day it arrived.

    Going back to the early '60s the only tractor drawn aerial was the 1957 ALF that was assigned to old Sta. 2.
    Sometime in the mid to late '60s a Maxim open cab tractor drawn aerial was purchased, followed several years later by another Maxim tractor drawn aerial with a closed cab for driver & tillerman.

    Many years ago the WPFD ladder rundown was: Trk1 (60-control L-32) assigned to fire Hdq'ts
    Trk 2 (60 control L-33) assigned to Sta. 2 on Hamilton Ave.
    Trk 3 (60 control L-34) assigned to Sta. 7
    TL-6 came along with the opening of the current
    Sta. 2 which was converted from the old bus garage as part of
    urban renewal.

    What qualifications did Pagano have that propelled him from the rank of fighter to commissioner?
    He was union president most of career prior to becomig commissioner and hug around John Spencer. Did he ever get his hands dirty?
    By all reports the new commissioner was a hands on hard working officer that has respect of men.
