    Sorry folks, but I have to make this statement. As being a long time member of EMTBravo. The somewhat "Cult Like" Inner-Sectums, Local Politicis, and what appears to be by many in the public as the "Good Old Boys' Club, among many many Paid, Combo and All Volunteer Fire Departments, not only in Westchester County, but throughout the county, makes many people sick to their stomachs.
    One set of rules for one, another set of rules for others and god forbid if the two should cross. Then you get the "VERY UNPROFESSIONAL" jabs, pokes, barbs, and in some cases downright cruel bullying by many, some of which are either current long time Firefighting Professionals/Officers or retired Firefighting Professionals/Officers.
    People would much rather read about and see a harmonious collaboroation between "Brothers" and others outside of the rank n' file, who love and respect the profession, rather than read about people accusing others of making false statements and/or assuming things that may be true or may not be true. These back n' forth cross jabbing on various posts here on EMTBravo.net, is starting to turn many many long time members away from this site.
    We all, as members of EMTBravo, have a responsibility to everyone on this site to make it Educational, Informatiive and most importantly FUN !!! AND, "Check Your Egos At The Door"
    Finally, as the late Jack Webb once said "Just the Facts, Just the Facts"

    As evident by the post above, tourniquets saved lives yesterday, no question about it. Please use this time to review your MCI/MCE, Counter-terrorism, trauma, tourniquet and CBRNE protocols.

    We have started this process already.

    The fact that its a study out of the University of California-Berkley is the first problem.

    IZZYENG4, it's was an open cab until 1998.
    In 1999 it was sent to J.C. Moore to be refurbished at which time they enclosed the cab.
    (now 8 man cab with 4 scba positions)
    Rear jump seat doors were custom made. They repainted the apparatus and did some electrical upgrades.
    X635 and X129K, Thank you!

    I wholeheartedly agree...I know of a case here in San Diego County where a deputy had been shot and wounded and a TV station put out his name less than a half hour after the incident...the SDSO notification team had not notified his wife yet...
    the vultures all want to be the first ones to announce "breaking news", and the families of the wounded/killed be damned...

    Two things about the audio;
    First and foremost - excellent, PROFESSIONAL job by Dispatcher and Fireman 312...KUDOS.
    Second, and one of the downfalls fo the information ages - is the fact that we are able to listen to this mere hours after the incident occurred. We get the names, pictures, and audio too fast....I hate to think over times, how many relatives learn of the death of a loved one via the internet.
