Truckie Video

There are links to several truckie videos embedded in this block. The most recent come from my post on Firehouse Zen, where I have also linked the Raleigh and Seattle Fire Department collaboration on their tiller training project in the wake of their rollover from a few years ago.Another great truckie video was sent to me by my dad (or my brother, can't remember who):

Inside the Ladder Shop at the San Francisco Fire Department from AdamKaplan on Vimeo.

Of course, both Webchief and Dave STAT911 turned me on to this EXCELLENT video of LAFD in 1949 showing how the truckies get it done! Check it out:

And finally, the LAFD Truckie Video:

Comment by Christopher Kurtz on November 7, 2008 at 2:30pm: Thanks for the invite! AWESOME video!

Comment by Randy on November 6, 2008 at 3:59am: trucks arent supposed to have hose on them it gets in the way. the only time water is supposed to be anywhere near a truck is for master streams

Comment by Randy on November 6, 2008 at 3:57am: gotta love thetruck company we get do all the work and have all the fun

Comment by Jim Creech on November 5, 2008 at 11:19am: Thanks for the invite. I'm sure I will learn lots here. My bosses tend to keep the truck a block away. I'm just a peon!

Comment by Joe Stoltz on November 4, 2008 at 10:12pm: Thanks for the invite. I'm still trying to figure out why trucks don't carry hose or have a pump on them... but I'm sure you guys will set me straight. :o)

Comment by Lt. Bob on November 4, 2008 at 6:31pm: Thank you for the invitation. Hope to get something from this group and give something back as well.

Comment by Mick Mayers on November 3, 2008 at 10:00pm: I wanted to say welcome to all of you who have found your way in here and ask you to invite anyone else you know who loves the art of truck work to our little group. It seems like just yesterday I was beating the bushes to get to the 100 mark and I'm impressed at the numbers we have in here now. Let's talk it up- what good is having all of these truckies here if they aren't sharing the wealth? Take the time to look over some of the threads and feel free to post about something you learned or something you want to learn more about. And most of all, thanks for being here.

Mick
