Jessica, the fire deptartment I belong to now serves about 8,000 people with 3 stations, but the one I used to belong to the main service area has a township of a toltal of 300 people thier total service area of about 200sq miles and 5 townships in 2 different counties with 7 active fully volly members now thats a small town fire company am I wrong?

ha! that's awesome. Congrads on passing your training. When I moved Down Under, I had to re-do all of my basic again. It's actually kind of cool when you already sort of know what you are doing.

Cheers

I to belong to a Dept now instead of a company. My Dept has 3 stations and 3 engines, 2 heavy rescues, 2 tankers, 1 light rescue, 1 brush truck, one boat, one hazmat/special ops trailer 1 100' tower. my station has the best truck ever, a 1936 dodge brothers ladder truck :-) my station has like 45 active member, un aware of the other 2 stations, im guessing combined the whole dept has atleast 100 active members

Hey Jessica. Sounds like your in need of some mutual aid up there. You must stay pretty busy running two depts. We have picked up a little this month. Mainly MVAs and small brush fires. stay safe out there and chat anytime. AJ

Semi must have been a challenge. I'll be going to Katy Extrication school next month, need all the practice I can get. You never know what your gonna roll up on. We cover a fairly busy state highway, route to a port. And it is drying up so we should be getting some brush calls. Bring on the action. Ha! As long as no one is hurt of course.
