  1. I noticed Star Gas was listed in the IA after Central Hudson. Is this Star Gas as in Petro/Meenan?
  2. Hello all, I know there are a few (at least) state troopers on here, and I was wondering what all the different Sergeant & Lieutenant ranks mean. (This is from Wikipedia) Thanks. Lieutenant Technical Lieutenant Chief Technical Sergeant Staff Sergeant First Sergeant Zone Sergeant Sergeant Station Commander Technical Sergeant Sergeant
  3. What is Larchmont's front line? Tower, Rescue, Two engines?
  4. I was wondering if Pelham Manor staffs both engines and the tower, or just one and one. Thanks.
  5. The Mack is Engine 1, and the Spartan is Engine 2. Tower 3 is the Seagrave. I'm wondering if the career staff staffs both engines as front-line pieces, or is it one and one and callbacks respond in Engine 2.
  6. FWD just can't handle road patrol duty.
  7. While on the topic, when are the new Chevy Caprice's coming out?
  8. Don't forget Engine 32 lol. 32 was the spare when 28 was the engine in Tuckahoe.
  9. Cablevision is a terrible company and the Dolan family deserves every minute of this. Those greedy people ruined the West Side Stadium with the money that they get for cable service. I wonder how much of the money they gave to another failure, Isaiah Thomas, came from the cable side of the business.
  10. This is what worries me about everything being IP based. The PSTN, for example.
  11. Does anyone know how they plan to operate this new rig? For example, will the Squad and SSU respond together?
  12. What a disaster. Were these people appointed to the Commission by Feiner?
  13. Looks great! How many seats in the cab?
  14. Correct me if I'm wrong, but public employees (PD/FD/DPW ect.) have to live in New York State as a condition of employment?
  15. Anyone heard of DDT? Is all this natural green IPM nonsense really any good? Of course not. This green thing is going way to far. I'm all for recycling and such, but when it affects my health, the hell with Mother Earth. Blast the place with DDT and get rid of them.
  16. God bless Jimboy and the entire Arena family.
  17. Welcome. The next County exam should be in the fall of 2012. Mount Vernon gives exams every two years or so. Try taking an NYPD exam also.
  18. WONDERFUL! Congrats and goos luck to all three of you!
  19. It's a shame - an officer in Westchester County could live up on the Columbia County border, and can't live in Connecticut which is closer (in miles) and cheaper...
  20. I noticed in one of the pics that a Con Ed truck had red and blue lights to the rear. I also noticed this on a truck today. Whats up?
  21. I would support this as well, since the utilities are so important in emergency response. As Chris said, we shouldn't hold our breaths waiting for the state to change the statues. I would say superviors only should have red lights and sirens.
  22. Jack, that was the picture that i was refering to. I also saw an Escape this week on 22 in Eastchester that had red/blue to the rear. While on this topic, why do MTA NYC Transit vehicles have red lights? Some have them in the front and back.
