Ok I Tried This On Myspace.com, In Some Firefighting Groups and The Responses Were Alsome So I Am Going To Try It Here. Now I Did Get A Couple People Say, I Have Been On To Many Calls, But Just Try Your Best To Describe The Incident. What Was Your First Call You Were Ever On As A Probie??? This Includes Fires, Car Accidents, EMS Calls, and Miscellanous Calls. I Want To Know Eveyone's First Call. Mine Was A Structure Fire @ 12 Glanhope Rd. Off Of Sylvan Lake Rd., In Stormville @ 1330 hrs. Me and Mike Quinn Were On East Fishkill 39-13 and I Directed Traffic. It Was So Alsome and I Will Never Forget Having Me, My Mother, and My Father Driving In An Chevolet S-10 Pickup Truck. It Was Tight In Thier. LOL. Thomas

In The East Fishkill Fire Department You Have To Stay With The Truck At All Times. Most Of The Times Thier Running The Pump, Or Staying Warm If It Is Cold Out, Or Cool If It Is Hot Out. If The Driver Does Leave He Is Less Then Ten Feet Away At All Times. When They Do Leave They Are Bring Equipment To The Scene. Thomas

I Would Like To See Your Favorite Piece Of Apparatus From Your Own Station. I Know This Will Problly Be Hard, But It Will Be Fun. So Post Away Guys and Girls. Well Here Is Mine From The East Fishkill Fire Company # 3. This Is 39-18 It Is A 2002 Marion Pumper. Thomas

Also, While Me and My Wife Were At Vassar Hospital In Poughkeepsie, Where We Were Having Our Baby. I Saw Towards Rt. 9 Thier Is A Helicopter Landing Pad. Now City Of Poughkeepsie Would Respond Thier. I Was Woundering If Anyone Has Seen Or Heard A Helicopter Landing Thier??? Thomas

In East Fishkill Fire District When It Snows Bad, We Send Out The Utility's On All Calls, But No Plows On Them. On 39-69, Witch Is A Pick Up Truck, Witch Has A Trailer For The 6-Wheeler, It Has A Plow That Clears All The Snow At The Fire Houses and County Will Notified, If Known, That A Driveway Isn't Plowed, It Will Be Dispatched To The Scene. Most Of Our Trucks Have Chains and Some Do Have Sanders. Thomas

I Think It Shouldn't Matter Where The People Are From. Because We Are All One Big Family Of Firefighters and EMT's. It's Also Great To Meet New People From Other Places and To See Different Fire Truck and Scene Pictures. Also, To Here People's Knowledge. So I Say Go For It Let Them Join. Thomas

How Do You Sign Up??? Thomas

Yes Thier Is. It Is Across From The ER. If You Go In The Main Entrance It Is At The Top Of The Hill On Your Left Hand Side. Thomas

Question For Any One Who Knows!!! Know I Live In Dutchess County and I Have Seen Stat Flight Land At St. Francis Hospital In Poughkeepsie.

Does Anyone Have Pictures? How Are The Trucks Set Up? Is A Line Stretched? Well Please Let Me Know Thanks. Thomas Also, Here Is A Picture From An East Fishkill MVA Taken On 8/16/2005.
