  1. What is flip school?
  2. Video of the World's Fastest Train This was only during a test, I could not imagine riding on this
  3. I totally agree, that is why i would have preferred to have our discussion in private, as far as i am concerned its over. I hope Clinton Young helps your Department in any way that it needs.
  4. You are correct. I am posting on an open forum, so I will answer you question fully. Last evening in Mt Vernon there was a DOA, that required a lift assist. The Medical Examiner asked PD and/or FD for help with a carry down. To this the FDMV flat out REFUSED to come and help. This is just one of an innumerable amount of times that the ME's office has requested their help, and they simply refuse to lend another agency a hand. What I don't understand is that when they have a fatal MVA, or a fatal Fire scene, they don't mind helping out. Also, the ME's office goes out of their way to accommodate them with a speedy response, prompt investigation, and removal. But when it comes to a simple carry down, where the ME cannot possibly carry it alone, or with another officer, the FD turns away. They are the only fire department in the area that doesn't help. 95% of the time we can do it alone, or with one of the officers. But that 5% when we need help, its ridiculous. Do you guys not help out EMS when they request a carry down? I am not making comments just to post them, My original post was callous and posted in anger, I have since retracted my original post, but did not change my opinion of the situation. I do hope that Mr. Young will help staff the fire houses, get new apparatus, and fix your firehouses. Hopefully this will boost morale enough for them to lend a helping hand to another agency in need of assistance.
  5. I originally editted my post to not spark a debate. But I can assure you, that I do not need more information about the issue I speak of. IF you wish to speak of this in private, please feel free to send me a PM.
  6. neighboring departments yes, other agencies, not so much
  7. Hopefully he will make the FDMV work better with other agencies/departments.
  8. Imagine seeing that walking up to you in your rearview mirror? You would be talking to his knee caps
  9. What I dont understand is that in the ORIGINAL autopsy, in which Dr. Michael Baden was consulted, there was no mention of any track marks (scar tissue from numerous injections). Also, the decedant died in NJ, therefore it is THEIR jurisdiction, i don't see how NYC can make a ruling on this, and it gets accepted as law?
  10. You getting your Lt. bars and Earnie possibly going to jail, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night
  11. I honestly don't think that he was referring to the fallen Firefighter. I think he is referring more so, to the Shaken Baby reference.
  12. With Halloween being tomorow, I am sure there are plenty of members that have carved up a pumpkin. I personally love it! This year I decided to get a 42lb. Monster instead of my usualy 2 or 3 smaller ones. Lets see what you've all done! I'll start it up
  13. Unless it has something or anything to do with Emergency Services, then no. If game threads are frowned upon due to their lack of purpose to the aforementioned field, then what would a politics forum do other that stir the pot?
  14. In what way is this constructive at all?
  15. Those brits can keep him! I would take Barricade (Transformers) any day of the week!
  16. I hate that, all dressed up with no where to go....
  17. Video **Not really Chris192, just an INSANE chopper pilot doing aerobatics!**
  18. If they did vandalize then they are morons. But how in the HELL do they think these used the jaws? I mean you think that they would have notice four knuckleheads carrying that around? Maybe with a generator? Or the hand pump? In my opinion this is just another attempt by the media to sensationalize a story......
  19. Don't disresepect me, I don't sell crack, Ima prostitute HAHAH you stay classy San Diego
  20. I stand corrected. The aforementioned parties involved are then morons, that give a bad name to all volunteers
  21. Doesn't look like it has the hemi? What's that about?
  22. No no, you got the wrong number, this is 9, 1, .....................2
  23. HAHAHAHAHA, thats awesome. I am in Valhalla, thats too funny! I guess i will have to let the chief know.
  24. I was a senior at Marist College (Poughkeepsie) and it was the first day of my Criminal Justice internship. I was sitting in the Lobby of the Dutchess County Sheriffs Office, waiting to be assigned an officer to ride with for the day. As I am sitting there, across from the como room I heard gasps and screams coming from inside. Withing seconds my face was pressed against the glass trying to get an idea of what happened. They realized that I was the new intern, and they then let me in. As i entered the como room, I looked in horror just as the second plane struck. It was at this point we all looked at each other and knew. Not a word was uttered, none had to. We all knew that this was no accident, that this was a well orchestrated attack on our nation. Then the reports came in of another plane striking the Pentagon, and another going down in Pa. I was finally assigned to an officer, who then drove me around Dutchess County at Mach II going from courthouse to the airport, to all other "soft targets" around Dutchess. Within an hour of getting on the road the Lt called the officer and told him to bring me back, and to go home. I called my mother who was in total disbelief and told her I was coming home. I ordered not to by both my parents. By that time my Father and Brother were already staging at the Training center, and were deployed to the Bronx to cover one of their truck companies. It is truly a day I will never ever forget.... and neither should anyone else. God Bless the Victims of the WTC, Pentagon, and United Flight 93 "LET'S ROLL"
