Just what I needed

To many white hats egos to get anything done

As if the paper ever gets anything right. But Goose is right with all of the new techno gagets out there, we will be under the microscope more than ever. We should be doing the right things all the time anyway.

Had to be cold, Great Pictures Good luck.Old IRON forever

I have seen this argument before but has there ever been a case where FF was denied benefits due to this? We all know of guys (PD and FD) who have been injured on the ballfield or the "b" job and make it back to work where the injury suddenly occurs. There are enough of those cases that are covered. Wouldn't the municipality employing the FF have to prove it didn't happen on the job or does 207 require the FF to prove it did happen on the job?

This is one reason why Career and Volunteers don't get along.Because of these kinds comments.Also comes to mind two career killed in texas while fighting a church fire as Volunteers in there hometown.Was denied lodd benefits from their career muncipality which was greater then their volunteer comunnity so WHO in the end suffers.

Great photo's.They many be small but they got the job done.

Don't forget Chalkboard talks on outside incidents ie:MVA/Trench any odd incidents also sounds like your in a farming community Aggie equipment very dangerous !!!

That was a Great Day of Fun

One of the best run in the area.Fun for the veteran firefigther or buff.

Put a Boss and 3 Firefigthers on ONE RIG 24/7 so they can respond in a safe and proficent manner. so atleast you have your first reponse covered.Then you work on all other avenues to get more volunteers. So then nobody is put in harms way the Public or the Firefighter.

Here in so west CT a trainer must be on location at high school events. but I do known it is great PR for your Dept

GOD SPEED R.I.P

Why not put all four on one engine on each shift. And have the volunteer's cover the rest of the equipment. Then at least your running safe.

Booster Reels were great in their time, but because as firefighter's we always push the limit and things get taken away. I did see in my time a dept that used an oil truck reel and mounted 200' of 1 3/4. It did deploy very well and it was wet packed. It was mounted between the cab and pump panel it could go out either side.

Rest in Peace.

Way to young GOD SPEED.

God Speed Rest in Peace

Never Looked Back did His Job now that a HERO. Good Speed

Some Departments should use this for Promotional test at least you can get your score right away

Get to the roof vent. Go big water /smooth. Need lots of help. lots of EMS.

Good For you. When right is right it is amazing how long it take to correct.You fought a good fight for the next guy this might happen to. Keep it up.

I know were I work they have fazed out the gumpy suits. And switch over to the more flexable Mustang suits.Question for the day. when is best to go training for cold water ie: the fall /early winter/winter what Does your Dept prefer.
