I just thought i would update you on a few stuff thats been happening. We had a bad car accident on Ohio River Boulevard, the roof and doors had to be popped on one car, and the other car the door had to be popped. Everyone survived but one person is in real bad condition. Thursday we should of had an entrapment call to pop a door but of course the police handled it. We still haven't had the big one yet but its close, we almost had it today a guy was saudering a pipe and wood caught fire, he dumped a bucket of water on it which saved it, we basically just checked for extension and ventilated. We are up to 301 calls for the year which is pretty good we passed last years call number by 1 so far. We are also on youtube now all you have to do is type in station 108 in the search box and we will pop up.
I no longer work on a bus, but when I did i think I called a bird once in 31 years. Yet we have certain services in Allegheny County that seem to put a bird in the air before the bus is out of the garage. That I don't understand. Think some providers feel it is easier to turn pt care over to you, then to get tied up for 2 hours or so with a transport into the city.
On a personal note, I love you flight folks. I have a nephew still alive becuase of the actions of some flight crews a few years. He was hurt so bad in an MVA that his injuries were, in my humble opinion, beyone what most ground medics could have handled. For that, all the flight crews in this region will always hold a special place for me.
Ya its been going off alot, especially when radio is drinking or working. ill be there wed we are supposed to get i believe 4 or 5 new ppl and im trying to keep 1 from not getting in.
Hows it going, you missed a hell of a call it came in as a comercial structure fire, then it turned into a hazmat scene some1 mixed amonia with bleach. The engine was there the rescue and the truck left at the same time, the rescue pulled behind the engine and the driver got told to pull infront of the engine. He started going and all you heard was a loud bang, he took off the highside compartment door, and we had to take the other 1 off. The rescue is all fudged up. The guy who made the rescue and he replaced the doors last year when they got ripped off his heart sank when he saw the rescue, so both of them will be out sometime soon.
We had a house explosion in avalon but im sure you heard about that, and then there was a entrapment call at wendys a car got t boned pulling out by the time was dispatched and we cleared it was 15 mins thats pretty good considering we had to take the roof off. I just thought i'd fill u in with some info.
My name is Tom Kenney. I’m a 24-year veteran and Fire Lieutenant on the Providence Fire Department. I’m pleased to announce that I’ve recently had my book, Working Class Hero: Memoirs of a Providence Fireman, published by Publish America (ISBN 1-4137-3107-4).
This is the first book of its kind written by a Providence Firefighter in 118 years.
“You can almost smell the smoke and feel the heat. ‘Working Class Hero: Memoirs of a Providence Fireman’ is a three-alarm read. It’s taken from the 23-year on-the-job experiences of a second-generation Providence firefighter who could shrug off tragedy with a flippant remark, time after time after time. Required reading.” (Wally Pickford -The Reporter)
“…his experiences pull the reader in and force them to think about the bravery of firefighters and of their own mortality.” (Kelly Smith - Warwick Beacon)
“Working Class Hero: Memoirs of a Providence Fireman is one man’s action-packed account of twenty-three years of life as a firefighter in busy metropolitan Providence – the third largest city in the Northeast. Experience what it’s like to be taken on one emergency call after another – fires, shootings, stabbings, and more. Encounter situations that are completely unimaginable to the average citizen. Thoughtfully written with the reader in mind, describing each stage of an incident, this book allows the reader to visualize riding along with the firefighters as they pull up to a scene and must take immediate action. In this book, Lieutenant Tom Kenney will take you inside the mind of a firefighter as he makes life and death decisions. Celebrate his victories and suffer his defeats. Glimpse a world few people ever experience. From practical jokes and fun around the firehouse to gut-wrenching real-life tragedies, this book covers it all!”
The book is currently available at Barnes & Noble Book Stores, Borders Books, and online through www.amazon.com and www.publishamerica.com. It is a full size paperback edition, 224 pages, and retails for $19.95.
