    Hey Chief how is everything. 32 yrs that is alot of time in the fire service. You must of seen alot in your years of service. Where do you think the fire service could be heading. Any training tips or any tips on how to do the job better.

    We have a LOSAP program in place and it is working, we are constantly reviewing and updating. We are considering both retirement and/or incentives. I need as much info on retirement programs for volunteers to submit a proposal to our Board for consideration. Thanks and if you have any other leads on the retirement aspect, please forward to me or provide my contact info. Remain Safe

    as of today. 03/03/08, all uniforms are still available Chief. Contact me if you want 'em. By the way, a Nassau County Police medic I work with just moved to your area, I believe North Kingstown, near Quonset Pt. NAS.

    Hey Kevin.
    My buddy is still working here in Nassau County. He's "commuting" until he retires. I think he's trying to get a dispatch job in North Kingstown FD. his name is Jack Eaton. Capt. Brandenmeier hasn't called me yet, so i'm moving on with the uniforms

    Hey Chief

    I did work with your brother many years ago. He was a lieutenant when I started in Providence - very well respected I might add.

    Stay in touch

    I am fairly resourceful at finding information, but I can only seem to find a lot of articles where the CDC was called out by the senators for covering up the fact that a majority of departments don't have the correct equipment etc. Perhaps you can have better luck...

    I found the bill, it is to require Homeland Security to develop and implement a survey of all departments to check on compliance with Standards. The bill has no clout, but it is a start.
    Thanks, C-5
