Looks very nice. A couple questions. #1, what's it mean to be a half service company (as per ISO)? Also, how often are new fire engines purchased? I don't think E25 can be more than 5-10 years old, and it certainly looks like it's in great condition.

I believe that Larchmont VAC is giving a CPR course on Dec 20th based on what their website says. I just want more details about the training. Do you have to be a Larchmont resident? How long is the training session? Do you just learn CPR or basic first aid/AED as well? Are there any costs involved? Any info is appreciated...thanks a bunch.

thanks, will do

I thought the 2-hr "24" was great...looking forward to Jan 11th

Hi folks, Anyone aware of any training opportunities for First Aid, CPR, and/or AED during the week of Thanksgiving? I have some free time & I'd like to take a class.

Thanks for your services buddy. We all appreciate your work. RIP

No, I think they stopped doing it at Ward Acres a few years back. They moved it to Main Street. To answer your question, they did have NRFD at the haunted house with a charged hoseline at all times. I believe they had multiple PD and NRPD mobile precinct unit there as well.

I am the founder/CEO of Ryan's Promo & Print and would be glad to speak with any of you interested in screen-printed apparel. I've done a good deal of work with FD and security related fields. Please let me know your specs.

Folks, I put together this remembrance video last year and figured that I'd post it here. My hopes are that this will be promoted to the first page of Break.com and seen by as many people as possible. Break.com offers payment for videos that make it to the 1st page, and I want to make sure that it goes directly to a 9-11 charity. I just want it to be seen as many as possible and make the biggest impact. Video THANK YOU TO ALL THE EMERGENCY RESPONDERS WHO PROTECT & SERVE EACH AND EVERY DAY.

Any security cameras capture these fellas? I'd like to see some picture shots. I'm sure DD has cameras, no?

I don't believe that the tornado hit according to the weather band.

Heard some units responding that way (6/20/08 at around 4:15ish) and wasn't sure if it was an MVA or not. At least one transported to Sound Shore. Anyone know?

Hi Folks, I am interested in joining a local VAC. I feel like I can give back to the community and also gain some personal satisfaction. They are offering to train for free and I can probably get some decent hours. My only concern (a big concern) is that I may be a bit squeemish/hemophobic. I do not like watching TV shows with a lot of gore (surgery shows) and I had one incident with a lot of my own blood where I almost passed out. Obviously I really need to find out if I can "stomach" the job because I certainly wouldn't want to compromise a patient's health. Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated, and God bless all of you who serve us each and every day.

Thanks for all the insight. Anyone know any specifics for Scarsdale VAC? Do they allow just drivers? How long is training? etc

Anyone ever heard of this in the lower Westchester VACs? I know that they struggle to find drivers.

I would join a lower Westchester VAC. Any more advice appreciated.
