Lomas de Zamora is the second largest city in the Province of Buenos Aires and here the great majority of firefighters are volunteers.

Si hay mujeres bombero en el Cuartel Central de Lomas de Zamora pero hace poco y son pocas, hay otros cuarteles en donde hay muchas y hace mas tiempo. La Argentina es un pais un poco machista y se hace dificil algunas cosas que en otros paises no son tan dificiles. En la mayor parte de la Argentina o casi toda el servicio de Bomberos es Voluntario incluso en la Capital Federal de Argentina hay cuarteles como La Boca o Vuelta de Rocha en donde murio un bombero al producirse una explosion en un incendio de una gomeria Firestone el fin de semana, yo estuve en el velatorio el dia Domingo por la noche y fue muy emotivo. En la Capital Federal los bomberos son policias bomberos (son ambas cosas y cumplen un turno de bombero y hacen horas extras de policia) En la Capital de la Provincia de Buenos Aires que se llama La Plata pasa lo mismo despues en casi todo el pais son voluntarios (solo tenemos obra social, pase de colectivos estatales y jubilacion)

If there are female firefighter at the Central Headquarters of Lomas de Zamora, but recently, and there are few, there are other barracks where there are many makes and more time. Argentina is a country a little macho and made some difficult things that other countries are not as difficult. In most of Argentina or almost any service Volunteer Fire Department is including in the federal capital of Argentina barracks there as La Boca or Vuelta de Rocha where a firefighter died when an explosion in a fire at a Firestone gomeria so weekends, I was in the wake the day Sunday evening and was very emotional. In the Federal Capital firefighters are firefighters cops (they are both met and a make-shift firefighter and police overtime) in the capital of the Province of Buenos Aires called La Plata after the same thing happens in most parts of the country are volunteers (we only have social work, pass bus state and retirement) but I would like to send me information about yourself and tell me about volunteer firemen in Australia

Fires in the Parana River delta, 2008 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Satellite image of the affected region on Friday, April 18. You can see the cloud of smoke covering the Delta and the entire region nornordeste of the Province of Buenos Aires, including the cities of Buenos Aires and La Plata. In red indicate the fires. Source: NASA MODISHacia early April 2008, a series of fires on the islands of the Parana Delta, which in principle were aimed at the burning of pastures to adapt to the soil of the wetland farming. However, the shortage of rainfall during this time of year, coupled with a phenomenon of drought, became uncontrollable fires, affecting more than 70,000 ha.

The resulting cloud of smoke generated air pollution worse in Argentine history, [1] affecting the region nornordeste of the province of Buenos Aires, including the city, south of Entre Rios, south southeast of Santa Fe, including Rosario And even Montevideo and the entire southern coast of the Eastern Republic of Uruguay.

In April, the smoke invaded Capital and large parts of the province of Buenos Aires while burning more than 70 thousand hectares of grasslands. According to the Government, at that time - one of the passages height of the dispute between the Casa Rosada and rural areas - those were intentionally burned, which prompted complaints to the Justice headed by the Secretary of Environment Romina Picolotti.
At that time 9 people died because of the low visibility on the routes, and the inconvenience were transferred to the city with a bad odor and irritability in the eyes and airways.

Tragic: Women firefighters were victims of the flames in the Delta

The burning of pastures in the Delta of Parana, the boundary between the provinces of Buenos Aires and Entre Rios, resulting in the death of a woman firefighter in the city of Baradero and wounded in two others, one of which was out of danger, reported firefighters. From the headquarters of Central Baradero said that the two other women received burns of varying consideration and were interned in the hospital Baradero and at the Institute of Capital Federal Burned, respectively.
Two others were trapped between two-meter flame A woman firefighter died while fighting the fires Delta

The latter was out of danger, doctors said avoceros. In contrast, women placed in Baradero was in a state reserved.

The three women, whose identities were not widespread, they were enclosed by a sudden change in wind direction and flames were hit by up to two meters high.

Hello Anne! What a wonderful surprise awaited me in my mail box this morning.....I received your lovely card and the patch you were talking about. I am so grateful to you. My wife wanted me to say that she too is grateful to you for your kindness. My daughter visited Australia this past summer for World Youth Day and made some good friends. She was under the impression that the card was meant for her. What a surprise when she opened it and saw that it was for me!!! The Garvin's wish you and your lovely family a healthy and very happy holiday season as well. Merry Christmas from across the pond! God bless you Annie!!!!!!
