I finally got him on the phone , it looks good it may be coming home.

Just gets me pissed, if he doesn't want to move then just call back and tell me!!!! :angry:

Craig I am on vacation this week and will keep trying and maybe take a trip back to Beekman, maybe we can enlist 34-1 for some help????? you out there Beekman?

I got it, umm I think Good choice to add the lights and radios, you never know when you may need it as 34-1 states, it can be used in many different situations. Nice simple design, well done.

From the same call, which one is better????? That is yours truly on the right!

Sad to say guys I have called several times, different times, different days, no luck. I did speak to the guys dad the other day as well as the day we went there and he said he would pass it to his son. I guess the owner isn't interested it moving it.

How about the Canon EOS Rebel XS, 10.1 megapixels DSLR comes with a zoom lens 18 mm-55mm- f/3.5-5.6 canon EF-S lens.

excellent job BFD, setting the bar for the rest of us. Great to see them putting the community first and giving back, great great great example.

good reminder, even though we should not need to be reminded.

Awesome shots Chris, Wow.

Great work TMFD, those guys must be beat.

Dept/Apparatus Type

Yeah me too, go figure today Joe, no camera(s) on scene for pics

Thanks Dan you forgot Markmets415

great looking piece, another fine addition to the Dutchess County.

That was my thinking.

Yeah I saw his yellow lighted truck but didn't know his name was Mark, I got a PM letting me know that.

You lost me for a minute there Capt., the yellow lighted rig belongs to LTNRFD not me.

Tom that's what I like about you, not afraid to ask a question if you're not sure. Great information and something not often talked about anymore with the onset of airbags, hybrid vehicles and the many other safety features; back to basics that are often overlooked today.

that smiley sums it up Doc.

Happy B-Day to Ed and Moose too

Thanks Moose, I was thinking the same, there was a link from lohud up a few in one of my posts. By the way Moose happy B-Day!!! Here's the link from Lohud, I had posted it in the other thread. http://www.lohud.com/article/2008811210383

Dan as you know the old saying "pictures speak 1000 words", that really holds true to the emergency services. I for one would never worry about what people think here about my PPE because as stated I wear mine faithfully, that can't be said for alot of others, to many times you and I see it, either no PPE or piece mealed together. The fire service clearly needs to get better.
