The Backroom Crew

This is a place where we can sit down, put our feet up and chill. Where the Boys and Girls can just be themselves. The Back Room or what most firefighters call a ''day room or rec room'' is the social point of every firehouse.

Thanks for the coffee Bill! Well, I just checked the latest storm track for Irene and she's making a run directly at Connecticut! Spent some time last with the crew going through the engine and making sure our UTV is ready. The latest track has it hitting right up the I-91 corridor which is the center of the state and puts my town right smack dab in it's path!

Wow, Kyle! Of course, now I am visualizing the Taco Bell chihuahua saying, "I think we need a bigger box!" LOL

Other than that, swinging through to say hi and stay safe everyone!

We get a few earthquakes now and then, but not as bad.

Now waiting for the hurricane

OK, Kyle - getting DETAILS from you is like pulling teeth...

So thank you for the valient start.... "I learned how to use a SCBA, conduct a search, and sound a floor."

Now I want to know EXACTLY step-by-step what you learned...

btw - sounding the floor - is a lost art that many FFs FAIL TO DO - resulting in FFs failing through floors (roofs)... so learn it and practice it... and DON'T LET IT BE A LOST ART !!! So important !!!

So I WANT DETAILS !!! EVERY THING YOU LEARNED - EVERY LITTLE PART - I WANT TO KNOW IT ALL !!! Come on, throw a girl a bone...
