By the way, being a fellow Emergency! fan as well, I love the pictures brother! Fire Station 127...where it all happened! Did you get a tour while you were there? Any interesting facts passed on to you about the station or the show? Great pictures!

Hello Lew,
Yes, I am a former Long Islander! Was a Member of the Northport Fire Dept for 4 years and my father was a 30 year member and past Captain of the Engine Co down there. I moved to Richmondville my senior year of High School and served 11 years and made Lieutenant in the FD and Lt and Captain in the Rescue Squad. I now serve in Cobleskill where I moved to when I met my wife, she is a member here as well so I moved to Cobleskill. Stay in touch and have a great week brother.
Stay Safe
