LT410

What is the real story here does anyone know the facts on what happened or is everyone going on hear say? Also does he have to attend the next academy or can he be trained and certified in house?

Have the stolen boots been returned to AAA yet?

True story call AAA and ask

Did triple A confirm the boots where stolen I heard they where bragging how the one of them stole the boots from the place today up in the academy

Is it true that one of the individuals stole leather boots from AAA in White Plains and got caught? Or is that a roomer

All true and what a joke they skipped a Iraq war Veteran claiming he did not live in the City yeah thats true cause he has been in Iraq for several yrs.

Mount Vernon 9 if it does not get squashed

Lets all give them a chance to prove themselves it is a big step from someone who was a foot doctor and one that was a fundraser

Jodi they are all just arm chair quarterbacks who knows how it will work out time will tell

We need to give the new commish the benefit of doubt

Good luck Noah do us proud!

Tomorow 11 am done deal from what we are told

Detroit firefighters battle fires, failures

Charlie LeDuff / The Detroit News

DETROIT -- He is a fireman on the city's east side, near the hulking wreck of the Packard automobile plant. He stands on the street corner outside his firehouse, hands in his pockets, waiting for the call box to call his number. The box bleats incessantly like a colicky sheep across a city perpetually in flames.

"Ladder 16, please respond."

The response comes.

"Ladder 16, out of service."

I found this on LOHUD after yesterdays fire in fdmv

Station 2 which is one block away, lost a ladder company and foam company both shutdown, not needed,opps, until tonite, 2 companys which could have had a positive impact, the rescue and engine company still housed there arrived with 3 firefighters and 1 officer. Yes minutes later, other companies arrived, minutes count in this job but is only important when its needed. At least that has been the thinking with all in charge.Oil companys around this area and no Foam truck, God Help.

And yes the beautiful new rescue 1 is housed there but is wasting away since the police took over the rescues calls over the years so now it is basically a bus to get guys to a job, all of that new equipment wasting away. What a shame. Before we start criticizing FDMV here lets have respect for all the brothers who work there who work thier buts off and take pride in what they do

Just goes to show how the fire service in most of the country is treated! Can you say like a stepchild?

They squashed the hirings? Same old same old
