yes,I had hair at one time,even on my face! #609 1983-1986

LOL!

Its hard to believe that was about 25 yrs ago,for those of you who are just starting in the career enjoy it and make the best of it because it goes by too quick! Yes I had hair back then but for most of you that don't realize it i have my hair cut short now because I want to look my age! lol

LOL-it always funny till some loses an eye!

To VAEMC- looks like the guy on the left had his share of eating those burgers!!! lol

Thoughts and prayers go out to the family,friends & FDNY!

A post was put on here mentioning the importance of using the TIC on the first deployed handline. The TIC will help the crews on the 1st line establish if the floor has fire under it. I just read where in Rochester NY and in Baltimore Co. firefighters have fallen through the floors at working fires. Luckily they were only slighty injured. Again-if others can add to this we all can learn from others mishaps. JJC

CHECK THIS OUT AND SEND SOME SUPPORT! Lawyers line up in firefighters’ reverse bias case

GOD BLESS all of our vets who served!

Great video- don't let that timeline fool you though, the fire that was set underneath may not have built up enough heat to really give accurate results but it certainly did show the difference between the 2. Also a post was on here about the use of glue instead of gusset plates which also contributes to immediate failure under heated conditions.

REMEMBER THIS: Lighty also said reports that one of the new firefighters has been arrested 14 times were "about right." But he stressed that no one would be put in harm's way because of these hirings and that the new hires would be subject to a zero-tolerance policy in their first year, which is considered a probationary period. City officials said the Fire Department had several people in its ranks with a prior criminal record.

Amazing! We can have a Black President but not a White Fire Lieutenant! LOL- good luck President Elect Obama and staff-time to bring this Country back to what it should be!!!

Today in Supreme Court in White Plains Judge Cathy Seibel declined the request of the City of Mt. Vernon to dismiss the case and ordered it into the discovery stage. This is a big step and subpoenas will be out in the near future for depositions for those involved. Again thanks for the support! jjc

Just heard on the scanner that MVPD is chasing a pair of leather firefighting boots eastbound on 3rd street! possible destination is north white plains???

As Fire Commissioner Young stated,"they will remain on the job and everyone deserves a 2nd chance" ,i meant Fire Commissioner Lighty, when you are in an appointed position you are in the hands of the mayor and from what was said on news 12 by the former union president there is nothing more obvious than this!

Ok here we go again, another class getting ready to go! The fall class is soon to begin,i believe 6 oct is the start date, any idea on what depts will have new members in the class?
