    I am looking to get volunteers to help with the Ultimate Firefighter event at the FDNY Fire Academy on Saturday, 8/27 - Monday, 8/29. This is a variation of the SCOTT Combat Challenge with the obstacle course and tower. We need A LOT of volunteers to help any or all 3 days. There will be two shifts of roughly 6 hours per day, 0630-1230 hours and 1230-1830 hours each day. I will take what I can get. It will be a great event to be a part of as all of the competitiors are firefighters from around the world!

    We do also need volunteers for the Opening Ceremony at Prospect Park in Brooklyn on Friday, August 26. I do not know what the time frame is but the gates open at 11 AM and the ceremony goes from 1 PM - 4 PM. I would assume volunteers will be asked to arrive aound 8-9 AM.

    Please Email or Message me ASAP

    If there is a fire at the white house or on the prem who responds?

    is secret service involved since there has to be some security issues with just allowing anyone in any one have any thoughts?

    This hospital is an amazing place and they treat their patients in the childrens section so well. You will never know or understand on how cool of a place it is for a kid to be since they make it so that you don;t even feel like you are in a hospital at all just a really neat Hotel room. I have been in there as a patient and it was the best hospital ever to be in cause how many can say they have a fire truck in it, a train in it, computer rooms and a mini golf course and so much more

    Nice Job everyone involved with the project you will make kids stay in a hospital alot better.

    I passed by equipment recv'ing for Port Auth. NY/NJ and they had a radio car with the weirdest light bar on it. At first glance it looks like an LED bar only about 6 inches taller. And it is split down the middle just like a McDermott. When it is raised it goes from being a horizontal light bar to a vertical lightbar and just the brace remains horizontal on the roof. It was a combo of LED's and spot/floods. I did a real quick search (online) to no avail. If anyone is familiar with this bar please post. I'd like to take a look at the spec's. I lit it up with my E-Wagon and their was no name or manufacturer on it of course....Thanks,
