  1. is this still on for tommorow???
  2. out of curiosity i might go but what do those showcase at this??? apparatus,equipment, contracts for departments, or is it more of a learning experience???
  3. i always hear about issues with the department, but ill put in my 2 cents the firefighters are a bunch of class acts!! the few times i buffed the vern and a firefighter spotted me taking a picture of a rig always he/she would pass by and greet you. One dept that deserves alot but gets gipped more and more.
  4. When does leather straps look like metal wires, but anyway maybe the kid was afraid of flying and thought and need some spiritual intervention to make it through, i dont blame him i havent flown in over 10 years and i dont plan on anytime soon. Although i wont go as far as saying he or she was right/wrong, if i was the kid i would have alerted the airlines and the flight crew before i gotten on the flight.
  5. when do you guys roll it??? ive seen a few structure fire calls incident reports and no mention of the rescue.
  6. im sure james vacca will, the council members made a big stink about firehouse closings last year and they didnt occur.
  7. suffern's tiller open cab and tiller, a 1973/1991 seagrave, beign replaced with a seagrave 100 foot tiller in late 2010.
  8. unfortunately x635 its true for the website talk of new rochelle UPDATE: Byron Gray, President of Local 273, the firefighter's union, has confirmed that pink slips did go out today. The reason they went out today is that by law the City must give 2 weeks notice of layoffs and the City wanted to cut six positions by the end of the calendar year. Gray is unhappy, telling Talk of the Sound "they took our negotiated raises out of the budget to bring the tax rate down and put the decision on us." The rank and file will have to vote on whether to agree to some sort of raise deferral or a headcount reduction. The dilemma for the firefighters union is that there is no guarantee that there will be no layoffs if they agree to defer their raises. Over the next two weeks, Grey says he will continue to negotiate with Chuck Strome on a deferral proposal. Meanwhile, the union will meet to consider their options and, at some point, Strome will have to go back to the City Council if some compromise can be reached.
