    Due to the IAFFs ban? If they are FDNY members they resigned because they are not allowed to live in CT. I'm sure a lot of other things go into decision making like wives and kids and second jobs. Quit blaming the IAFF for the true external forces that have diminished volunteer numbers over the years. I'm begining to think this thread should be "Cogs position dosn't hold water"

    There were some thoughts earlier, regarding minimum training standards per CT law. CT Dept. of Labor has issued this and it's posted at the Commission of Fire Prevention & Control web site:

    It is very similar to NY's requirements. Enjoy.

    There's something you don't see everyday - people besides firefighters giving a darn about fire protection. Where's the rub?
