  5. -Here it is in 1987 (Cr@ppy pic)....................... "in 1987 & 1988 it served as TL-75 before 75 got its' new 10 wheeler Mack Tower Ladder, which is now spare TL-77. By the way the brakes were terrible on that old tower ladder."

  17. Clip of special the BBC made in 1972 in The South Bronx, filming E-82/L-31/Bat-27 etc.
  18. "....if I go over to the chauffer of an engine etc. and explain to him the situation and he tells me to go pound salt or walks away and ignore's what I am telling him...he is escalating the situation......" -I will make a quick comment on this, cause I have been there.We have our chain-of-command also, and when we are given an order by a Lt. ,Capt. or Chief to place the rig there, and a Officer comes over and asks to move the apparatus, they should understand that if the chauffer just gets in and moves the rig he is disobeying an order from his superior. It is not up to him to decide to jump in and move it, the PD should understand that he/she should check with the FD Company's Officer.- Does this make sense ?
