Yes, it was a "DOG" that was on fire !

This is definitely the funniest thing I have ever heard pertaining to the fire department ! http://www.res6cue.com/duddy/FDNY%20Engine%2075.wav

Prime example of why my fire department and Tarrytown both respond to accidents on the Bridge. You just never know who is going to get stuck in traffic. Better to be safe then sorry.

A few videos, more will be uploaded another day ! 17-Quint backing into the firehouse: 17-Quint light show side: 17-Quint light show head on: 17-Quint light show head on from a distance:

Looking for any lists of vendors that anyone or any fire company has. Willing to exchange my contact list. Trying to make my 1st Expo at the Rockland County Fire Training Center on May 6th, 2007 be the best it can be and need a few more vendors from the Lower Hudson Valley to attend. Any help greatly appreciated. Brian Duddy - Trustee - Rockland County Volunteer Fire Services Museum RocklandFires@aol.com

No, just Rockland H&L's apparatus is changing to this color. Started with 17-Rescue a few years back !

Just got a video of the new truck:

Just got a video from the guys as well !

Sneak Peak photos from the factory of Spring Valley's new ALF with a Roto Ray on the front. Not sure if any Rockland Rig ever had a Roto Ray, may be a 1st !

Sorry guys, decided to make the forum PRIVATE, so your going to have to register to view anything. Here are a few photos from the factory that were passed on to me. Notice the Roto Ray on the front, possibly the 1st ever in Rockland !

The Garmin GPS units really work great. I bought the NUVI 350 about 6 months ago and it has come in real handy finding jobs instead of fumbling through maps ! Good luck with it.
