FDNY Firefighters James Denniston (assigned Engine 285) and Quincy Lawton (assigned Ladder 42) aboard one of Marine 3’s safe boats rescued

five injured men from a sinking boat in Rockaway Inlet/Breezy Point Jetty on July 7.

“I feel fortunate to be part of such a great program and assist people when they need help,” said Firefighter Denniston, who also was part of the

FDNY team that saved lives in Afghanistan and the rescue of four people from a Queens fire when he returned.

It appears that a number of Mount Vernon departments are "slow" to react to issues within their respective departments. Look at the DPW and now the Fire Department (and both ties back into the Mayors Office). Hmmmm

Exactly!

The New and the Old!

Taken at a swim detail this past Thursday and Friday. The new boat is awesome.

They went with garden tractor batteries from Wall-Mart!

That was suppose to be a secret... lol

Very nice rig & shot!

Very nice shots as usual, Eli!

We were actually asked to vote on the new color scheme. A majority of the department picked this design over 2 others. It's usually tough to get cops excited about anything but guys are very excited to get the new cars on the road.

Good to see you posting again. Thanks for the information, hope the new vehicles are serving the dept well.

Seems to be making it's rounds...

The first meal eaten in the new chief car...at KFC... lol

Very Nice, glad to see you guys improving your department to the extent, keep up the great work and photos!

Is there ANY reason at all to turn the microphone on while hes asking a civillian to move back? It's a incident involving a chopper, and he's on the radio yelling at the guy? and then giving an attitude because they didn't respond to his first nasty request? Really? I am pretty sure the first guy who walked up could've asked in a more appropriate way, but no, he had to.

It's just a disgrace in my opinion, even though he could have a valid point on where exactly the camera is pointing, but that's not what he was worried about.

So.... where are the pictures???

Some nice shots from Truck4 https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151655022109596.1073741854.175887864595&type=1

Seth glad you made it, was nice to finally meet you and Rob. Rob it was a great time thanks for the invite.

You can count me in LT, looking forward to it.

That is one AWESOME RIG! Thanks for the continuous photo updates, I hope you folks have a wetdown or something for it, would love to check it out.

Hows your brush truck doing?

Hope it serves SVFD well.

maybe these ones will be a little clearer on the site

New M2 for WCPD. Hope it serves them well. This one isn't the exact same thing as the 1st SAFE boat, but very similar. I believe this replaced one of the Whalers.

Seen here operating at a minor boat accident yesterday 5/4/13

That was quick....

Zoom in on the photo, it's got helicopper written all over it.... lol

It'd look nice if that design on the tail wing continued to the cockpit, that'd look awesome.
