Thanks for sharing the great photos. It goes to reinforce that Empress is one of the EMS leaders in the Hudson Valley, and they have a very dedicated employee base. Although many of grumble, many of us know how great it was to our careers to have worked there.

The current generation has really kicked it up a notch, and the photos show it! I still remember the days of the County Fair where a certain x129k and x307 set up a lighting system on the EMS golf cart for the County Fair using lifepak batteries, lol!

I don't remember the lifepack part but I do remember the lighting on the golf cart.

Thanks for the comment as well.

Good to see some familiar faces that I've either worked with along the way or were in my tac medic course. Great job guys and the ladies as well.

Just a quick question, and I don't mean to get off topic too much, but if you are an EMS agency boss or training officer and would like to join Empress for some training events, please PM me. We could teach you something and you could teach us something. Please pass on the idea if you think its worth it, I DO!. As for Empress we would ensure CME's for most training and provide the equipment for any Decon. training etc. for the event. Don't forget ALL TRAINING IS GOOD TRAINING!!! Please let me know what you think.

I still remember a couple of medics with a full set of ALS gear on an elephant ride at the county fair. Now THAT's a new mode of response. I think the theme that year was Empress Goes Safari! It's OK to say this now. I'm reasonably sure that the guilty parties have successfully entered the witness protection program and the statute of limitations has expired.

Considering I'm a set of arms that had no face to be blocked out in one of the photos I know who they are and where they are from...hence the "we" in my post. It was a joke...relax.

Chris...I can only imagine what that looked like. Next joint operation...we need vics!

Setting up the low tech and not very pretty decon line.

I am not digging the ESU lookalike uniforms AT ALL!

Why on earth would want to LOOK LIKE cops?
