Why I Joined Fire/EMS
It had to do with a black fire engine from Elkins West Virginia and the snorkel that was operated by our volunteer fire company. Also I like getting involved and not sitting back.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
the challenge
Top Issues Facing Responders:

    Looks like you've been down around here (PG County). Let me know next time you're down this way if you want to shoot some other apparatus.

    Take care!

    Check out the some of the Groups, I have started up "Close Calls" an area to tell your story of what you did and should not of so others learn. "Roll Calls" this is another group that allows you to tell us about your station and district. "Trainers Corner" is another area that you can read about issues other trainers have or deal with. As well if your not a trainer you can ask questions or state concerns you have. If you have a hard time locating them just go to my site and look at the bottom left hand corner.

    Enjoy, be safe and remember we all come home.

    the 1935 dodge was bought by Ferrara Fire Apparatus out of Evansville, IN. I don't know what they intend on doing with it.

    To answer your question on the location of the pump panel on the TFFT, Yes you have to get up in the crew cab, put down a fold down platform and stick your head through the opening in the roof........
    Great placment in a War-Zone....(Sinper anyone!? :) )

    Stay Safe
