Wow, kinda gives you hope.
Great Post, RIP Trooper Fox!

Trooper Andrew Fox of the Virginia State Police was killed in the line of duty last week. When 9 year old Lane Snow found out that the Trooper's funeral procession would be going by his house, he put his Cub Scout uniform on and stood by the road and saluted the entire procession which was 2 miles long. That means he held his salute for approximately 15 minutes.
Even through their grief, the Troopers and Officers in the procession took notice of this kid and his salute and honored him at his Cub Scout meeting this week. This kid is the proud future of America !!

EJ Noble Hospital in Gouverneur New York (St. Lawrence County) has been closed until further notice.
"The reason for the lab's closure: 'Serious and persistent issues that are a threat to patient safety and health,' according to Department of Health Public Affairs Director Bill Schwarz."

Discussion on these articles?

I visited Yorktown's Open House on Sunday and got some shots of some of their apparatus. In this group we have Engine 273, Ladder 51, the inside of the station looking out and the outside of the station featuring Mohegan Lake's Utility and smoke house.

In this post we have Engine 272 with some of its compartments and Rescue 16 with all its compartments..

While this is true why not just have a contract that states complete by X or the contractor pays the penalty at $33k a day. That is an incentive to get it done on time also. Lets face it they got paid for the job, did it in less time, they saved already. Imagine if we got incentives for getting to calls faster than a specific time frame the public would be up in arms.

Here is another one of their trucks today at Holy Name Hospital ER, Teaneck NJ.
Scott

$ 1.2 million bonus for doing the job right. And we wonder why the state is broke.

I will say that working with Brits out here has shown me a few of things:
1. They are far more aggressive than some of their other European counterparts
2. Gas cooling works given the right circumstances
3. Their rigs are smaller and meant to "do it all"
and
3. I too will stick with the tried and true tactics of America's Bravest
Stay Safe
ps Editing due to fat fingers, no reading glasses and an apparent inability to count....

Very interesting. And all these years we've been told how far Europe is ahead of us in firefighting tactics. I think I'll stick with America's Bravest.

I suggest we all write our congressman and either ban purple lights or tax them heavily. If it's dumb, our legislators will surely put it into law.
OOPS...I take that back...I'm getting old.
Congress might take it the wrong way and ban funerals altogether.

Actually its in New Jersey.
North Hudson Regional Fire Rescue covers North Bergen, Union City, Weehawken, West New York, and Guttenburg in NJ.
If you're a big reader of Fire Engineering or listener of their Blogtalk radio shows, Deputy Chief Anthony Avillo is pretty active with FE's work, he's with North Hudson. After listening to his shows I asked him for some training materials that I could use for my guys and he was more than helpful. Good guy and by all accounts a great Chief.
Their website:

The apparatus in question:

Unrelated to your question, that's a pretty interesting concept... merging several smaller departments in order to create a larger regional department capable of providing a vast array of traditional and specialized services to the public they protect... Craziness.
