  1. Whats going on at JFK? Stay safe Boys!
  2. Stay safe Port Authority, NYPD, and FBI.
  3. Woooooo! For a moment, I thought I would have to go back to reading the Boston Globe with my morning coffee! Sorry I couldn't donate, In the same situation as you, except with a Fiancee who is expecting!!! Thanks!
  4. He was going fast!
  5. "Yeah why don't they just go in there." You, Deserve to be shot.
  6. I woulda tossed out my whole load of bunkers!
  7. What Make Of lightbar is that? and what Colors?
  8. I have massive OCD when It comes to those things. Often times I will find myself responding with the Med and they are locked out, But the irons are always where i need them and not floating around in the back of my Vehicle.
  9. Send him to college, if he even has finished high school, and I thought I was a bad driver as a teen.
  10. Personally, I only use the rear cabinets when I am an IC at a major incident (rarely) other than that I only use it as a place to use the toughbook and it has streamlight and portable chargers...
  11. We Do, Alpha being low, Delta being High. We usually only Roll code 3 on Charlie calls and up, but occasionally the dispatcher will relay mid run that the patient is no longer breathing and than it becomes a Delta Response and we light it up
  12. I run Red/White in the front dash of my POV, with Blue and Red in the Grill, and Red and Amber in the rear, In New Mexico You can have whatever lights you want on your POV/Apparatus as long as the person driving and placing the apparatus has a Class E license as well as the mandatory Apparatus Placement Class provided by the state.
  13. When I respond on any med call or public assist i put on bunker pants, you never know what you'll be kneeling in and my 5.11 duty pants are way to hard to wash. I never wear the bunker top unless its cold out or I am going to be in a hazardous situation, the morning pride gear on our med unit is fantastic, but we really only use it when were at a pin job or at a structure fire.
  14. Its Pretty Easy to find used bunker gear, I'm sure you could find some cheap EMS Gear. The EMS Jacket and Helmet we Keep on our Med unit was donated from a former east coast dept. that was disbanded.
  15. We Have back up cameras in all of our apparatus aside from one of our reserve engines.
  16. What do you mean? As In Bunker Gear? Or as in Uniforms?
  17. I'm 6' 4" And I find my Dept. Tahoe hard to drive, Its even Harder to drive my A4 With bunkers on... I would rather don my gear at the station or on scene,
  18. Have You ever tried driving your Admin Vehicle going code on the highway in full bunkers? or your POV? It's Impossible, Being an officer I find that at the most driving the apparatus you should wear your pants, I don't want any of my guys driving to have any sort of obstruction to the pedals, audible and visual warning controls and other items inside the cab, In my Dept. the Engineer Usually only wears a t-shirt bunker pants, Safety Vest, radio harness and Command Jacket if its cold out.
  19. Rest In Peace Keep Your Heads High Your Badges Shined Celebrate the lives of your brothers
  20. Excuse the foul Language, A friend of mine In Utah showed me this video of an Intoxicated gentleman. What would you do in this situation?
  21. I believe they had him on the boat, From what I understand a member of the US Ski Team Pulled him out.
  22. Also Keep In mind if your drinking almost freezing cold liquid it takes longer for your body to process it.
  23. Exactly but I guess that's what keeps us on our toes, I think its up to the first arriving apparatus to make that judgement
  24. Here, If there is any suspicious explosion State and City EOD is called in before any movement happens on scene, This happens rarely but it is part of our plan, If either State Police EOD or City Police EOD is out of service we have to wait a good half hour for the Sheriffs Office to get there S**t together, but like I said, its just a protocol on any suspicious situation because of what happens in the middle east with secondary devices, My two cents.
  25. What exactly are highway risers? For the lightbar?
