Thanks man! Thats why I said I need a tripod Didn't know that you can fix that in youtube. I assume you mean camera lense, I used a 55-200mm.

Homeowner called 911 and yelled "Fire, Fire, Fire" then hung up. TMPD called 60-control and dispatched TMFD on a reported strucutre fire. TMPD units arrived first and found a working fire. TMPD updated 60, who then updated 2232. 2232 arived secconds latter and asked for the 10-75 assignment.

Here are my video shots put into 1 video. Some apparatus, some scene shots. Watch in HD for a much better picture quality. I think I need to invest in a tripod All the photos and video posted are my property and can’t be used without my consent. If you would like to use my photos or videos, contact me. Please let me know if you like em. Happy New Year!

21 Hour course, includes learning laws, History of the fire service and fire police, Personal Protective equipment, Traffic Management situations, Flagger training, Incident management system and Crowd control and crime scene management practices. Final test includes written exam and practical. Although I haven't taken the course, I'm pretty sure the first thing they tell you is to let a Police Officer do the work. Interesting side note, there is curently a bill in the NY state senate to get sworn-in FP members to the scene faster. I just wanted to quickly share this, we can discuss in another thread.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone! A little special message from the guys and galls over at 60-control... Have a safe holiday!

You are correct, that confined space rescue unit is owned by the UVM Physical Plant and is not afiliated with UVM Rescue. That truck is put on stand-by, on the scene of a confined space entry. The university requires a permit be submited to the Physical Plant so the truck can be staffed. More info can be found here... UVM Confined Space Program

Does anybody know the status of West Harrison's Rescue 35? I know it went back to KME for repairs after the engine fire, but haven't heard anything since. Thanks in advance. West Harrison Fire Truck Fire Nyack (Rockland County) West Harrison Firetruck Fire 07/12/11 (Pictures)

That explains it, thanks!

I don't see any chat icon or button. Can someone point me in the right direction.
