  1. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Seagrave produce a mid mount demo a few years back?
  2. I know Pleasantville VAC moved from Marble Ave to Gramercy Place a while back. Are they still on Gramercy Place?
  3. Do the current ALF Engines have stainless steel bodies?
  4. Who does the decision about the Fieldcom's response fall under? Is there still a "Fire Council" or Fire Chiefs association that could look into why it is not responding to these type of incidents? Maybe they don't want to pay the overtime to the Dispatchers who operate it, or the communications center doesn't have the personnel to spare.

  6. One of the problems I see in some departments is that the Commissioners are there to support the Chief and allow him to do his job, not the other way around. When Commissioners try and run the department, that turns a lot of guys off. How are you supposed to retain guys when you've got a governing body that's oblivious to what the rank and file wants and needs? Well run departments, like Bedford Hills, the Chiefs and Commissioners work quite well together, and you can see it in their high manpower turnout at calls and their pride.
