Go to the itunes store and look on the right hand side under "quick links". There you will click on "redeem" and cut and paste/copy the following code: 6TMN37KK4T3K . We are curious to see what folks thinks so please try it out and let us know. Thanks!

Peter,

Thanks for the feedback.

I was always taught protect personnel first. If the sprinklers are working, and designed/installed properly, they are doing their thing with the right amount of water. Boosting the pressure to the system is a good thing, but not absolutely crucial. Standpipes, on the other hand, particularly when they have a separate connection, may be dry. Nothing worse then getting to the fire floor, hooking up to the standpipe outlet, opening the valve, and getting nothing out of it. Get water to your firefighters first, then boost the pressure to the sprinklers. At the end of the day, if the chauffeur is good and the connections are close anyway, there shouldn't be much time difference between completing both tasks. There may not be a "right" answer here, but that is what my preference is.

Welcome Brother, Glad you like it. Our tradition of having a "Heavy Rescue" began in 1954 with what was quit possibly the first in the state. It was Cadillac green and an open walk-in. The one in the photos is our third replacement of that one and is still the only actual complete one among many others around here. It is auto response to everything. except EMS calls as a Home Depot on wheels. This is a great page you have here. Keep the faith.

Peter, thanks for bringing the discussion to our attention. I have forwarded it on to the Chief, and am hoping he will weigh in.

Peter, with regards to your question about running first responder calls to gain knowledge toward my nursing degree, that was my idea. I have already gained much more self-confidence, and have found myself thinking more clearly in an emergency.

Hey Peter, thanks for the comment. I am not a huge supporter of the rules, and understand that small towns can use all the help they can get. I feel it is a shame that a well trained guy is told to "not volunteer" because of his paid status. But the same guy is allowed to be a plumber, what there are no plumbers unions? I see it as crap, but I also understand the concepts beyond what most see on the cover...

Thanks Brother
Stay Safe, FETC Delete Comment

Peter,

Well, the "Referee" thread was closed again, then nuked, then references to it in one of the private groups to which I belong were nuked, then that group (the FOGIES) was nuked.

Apparently some people are in love with power and their egos, and have very, very thin skin.

Thanks for the support.

Peter,

I love the Einstein comment on your FFN page. It's a classic, and it applies in spades to my referee post this morning.

Did you notice the irony that Dave commented on my post and then closed it? He's earned a trip off of my friends list.

I see you've been at Wellsboro since 1977. Awesome - do you guys still have the huge station full of ALFs, or did they all get retired or sold?

Good to know you, brother.
Ben
