Al, I was wrong in my post about Loren Greene playing one of the Rescuefiremen, it was Jim Davis remember him Jock Ewing on "DALLAS" on RESCUE 8 he was fireman, Wes Cameron. There were 72 1/2 hour episodes over 2 seasons frrom 1957 to 1960, after that it ran in syndication for over a decade. I have heard you can buy these episodes from season 1 and 2 but have yet to find them out anywhere. Hey Bro. try looking for me down your way if you could or wouldn't mind. I surely would appreciate it.
I will also keep you posted if I find out more about the show. NOW PERK UP!!!! I say, todays a new and rainy day here but at least were upright and taking nourishment.

Best Regards
Bro. Bob

Robert, I remember Rescue 8 so we must be in the same generation. Did a google search and found a web site that you can purchase a complete dvd set of the complete series. Go to http://www.tvaddicts.tv/movie/action/Rescue_8.html. Hope this helps you regain a bit of the past. Enjoy.
