Pawling has one of best Fire Chiefs I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

Not to toot his horn but, he is one cool cat.

Everett is indeed a very good leader. Good command of scenes, and good morale booster for the whole department. I look forward to seeing the new BRAT in person.

I believe Pawling's delivery will take this week.

Sounds like they could use a few of these in Rockland today.

How big is the Firematic facility. The pictures always look like its very cramped for space.

That Google image is for Firematic Fire Equipment and their Pierce dealership and service facility.

The Firematic BRAT facility is located a few blocks away in an industrial park.

How big is the Firematic facility. The pictures always look like its very cramped for space.

For the amount of work they are doing now, they are definetly outgrowing the space. And they also operate with a very efficient, skilled, dedicated but small team.

Here's a photo of the front of the place, with Wassaic's not blue like it should be Chief's car. From the car to the corner of the building is theirs.

They are attempting to find an alternate site to relocate to for more room as their production #'s are increasing. I can only speak from our experience but our BRAT had far exceeded any expectations that we had for it, it has been called out to several mutual aid departments in NY and neighboring CT, if you haven't seen it here it is.

Pawling's BRAT had been delivered, may it serve the Pawling fire district and it's neighbors well.
