  1. thought it was funny, joined NYSC a while back, now they have a rule, only paid firefighters get discounts, out of control
  2. VMFD purchased Globe G-extreme with the DRS( Drag Rescue System), is that what you are talking about, if so, they seem to be quite interesting, we've done a test with it and seems to be a replacement of the "scott pak harness" where you would use the waist straps between the legs to extract a downed firefighter.
  3. sounds like a case of snapple tops
  4. chris498 ladder 19 is tmfd, not vmfd
  5. well said chief
  6. i always thought it had to do with LZ's
  7. i love the PBI color, however, my firetruck is yellow, so my gear at the firehouse is yellow, period. of course, ive gotta have my set of black with no writing for when i buff during the winter months
  8. i have a 1010 in yellow and in black, but nothing is as comfortable as my fathers new yorker, broken in and 25 years old. Not to get off topic but having personal stuff is more assuring. I have an entire set of gear, from RIT harness to nomex hood that is mine, i own it, and i feel more comfortable in that set, than I do in the set i keep at the firehouse, which is set up the exact same way.
  9. maybe someday someone will make a movie or show about firefighters that isnt a love story, a family's timeline, or an alcoholics AA meetings, and we can a firefighter put out fires, and pack hose, and so on. Then people can see what we really do.
  10. this may sound stupid but whats a dry down
  11. i got some good video of the last New Rochelle fire
  12. its not that redundant, doesnt white plains have there own training facility, new rochelle uses it as well.
  13. New Ro uses 33.96 to be dispatched, then they go to 46.26 to be heard from county, but I dont have their fireground with me right now, im at work
  14. E 40, vil of mamk was going to be the same blue from RDMURRAY, however, since they finally got the department to stop complaining about the yellow they had for the previous 20 years, they decided not to go through it all again and stayed with the yellow
  15. volunteers try to be like paid, paid like volunteers, nobody is trying to be like anybody, were all firefighters
