Thank you Ben for accepting me.I lived in Harrison TN. years ago.Lived down by the ski club at the river.Worked in Cleavland TN.Was there for the blizzard in March 1993 that was ugly.You have an impressive history with the fire service! Once again thanks Chief.
I know what you mean; I think they are the great the only problem is common sense isn’t so common which leads to multiple injections and even with that it still has no effect on some of the members here.
Hey Ben,
Just wanted to say hello and hope all is well with you. Im trying to get back to my life now that winter is over, and wanted to shout out to my friends here at the Nation.

Chief,
Can you provide me with some information about go-no go training regarding heat. I remember HHI haveing something that if the heat got up to a certain point that the guys didn't do much outside. Do you still have something in place?
well tell your son thanks as well, for what he does! and we really cant thank yall enough for all the support, it helps us get through the day knowing someone is thinking about us over here! So thanks agian!
The Engines are really nice. It will be nice to finally standardize all the Engines. Did you guys just finally get tired of the refurbs or how did you convince the city to release that much money at once?

Well congrats on the position, it sounds like an honor to just be asked. I may have to get in contact with you on my upcoming program project. Maybe FSt will pay me to come out to HHI for "work" or vacation whatever you want to call it. As far as Jones and Bartlett goes, I have done a little work for them myself with the new Technical Rescue manual. IFSTA and FST (where I work) are both part of OSU but actually two seperate entities. We try to work together as much as possible since we are both so close but we also work with others to get programs and information. We just try to do the best we can, the more help the better.

That sounds like alot of changes happening. It is nice to hear that the training center is acctually happening. I was reading one of my many rescue mags the other day and lo-and-behold the is Chief waller now as teh Swiftwater technical Advisor (not sure on the exact title) but congrats. I knew you were up on your stuff but sounds like you are the man. I am actually starting to develop the swiftwater program for OSU this year so I am looking to start traveling through the country looking at others that are being delivered. Well congrats on all the changes and keep me posted on all the happenings.
