    If your staffed properly and everyone does their job you should be able to put the fire out and move before the ticket officer nabs you! Of course you'll have to leave all the overhaul to the truckies.

    It's funny, some VFDs are better "staffed" and more adequately covered when they are OUT of town...

    This is brought up EVERY parade season.  The answers never change, and neither does the inadequate level of response.

    Crews worked to remove both front doors. The drivers legs were pinned under the dash, so the Holmatro spreaders and chains were used for a dash roll. 
     
    *Side note; VGFD responded to this incident with minimum manpower. R480 had a chauffeur, officer and 2 firefighters, while E479 responded with a chauffeur, officer and 1 firefighter. Car-3 was on scene in command. Members had the victim extricated within 16 minutes. 
    I was not at this incident, but I am proud of my VGFD brothers on a job well done.

    Urban Studio Unbound (www.urbanstudiounbound.org) along with members of the Yonkers Fire Department have opened a two week exhibit honoring the history of the department with photos and displays.  The exhibit opened this past Saturday and runs through June 24, 2017.  The studio is located at 66 Main Street in Yonkers.  There is no entry fee but donations are greatly appreciated!  Hours are: Wednesdays 2-7 pm, Thursdays 11am-4pm, Fridays 12-5 pm, Saturdays 1-6 pm, and Sunday June 18, 1-6pm.  The exhibit closes on Sunday June 25th.
     
    Members past and present, along with their family members have commented on the heartwarming and sincere effort that went into displaying the hard working firefighters over the years and the professional rememberance of those members who lost their lives in the Line of Duty
