  1. What are you talking about 2% money refund from the Insurance company's received each year or tax money from the tax payer ?Two different things
  2. Love the 30 year + Ford C engine still running fires !
  3. Fires in general This is just one photo that shows engine 58 at work at a car fire He was told that because we rode with one firefighter we did very little at the locations what ever it was . This shiff there happened to be two firefighters on the engine
  4. According to the Mayor , we did nothing when we got on location as told to him by the dept heads
  5. My youngest was very high on the PC list

  14. Thank you Beavis you got it as I was typing
  15. Well it just got a lot deeper, We in the dept new about this for a year now . Can someone put the new's 12 story for today about the so called dept head . and yes please be sitting when you here this story !
  16. 3 of the 6 of the village board are removed from office on Friday after it was found out that they did not sign there oath of office after there election on March 15 . They had 30 days to do so . Gee I wonder how they found out ?
  17. It won't take long for it to go sour, stay tuned .
  18. Just a reminder , the Port Chester Career staff was at 16 . 8 is all that is left after retirements that were not filled. So this has been coming in my eyes for a few years .
  19. They kept saying one career firefighter on one fire engine shows up and they are correct. What they are not doing is finishing the rest of the story . When I got hired we had 16 strong career with 400 Volunteers with about 300 give or take and the rest [ 100 ]the older members . The Career staff runs Engine 58 and Engine 59 . When a call came in on the fire phone the firefighter at HQ answered the call and got the info . When it was determined whos call it was [ Eng58 lower Port Chester ] with most of the work or Eng 59 with more area but less work [ mostly bedroom but some very large buildings [ General foods 1900 by 500 ] and so on . If it was 58's call he would stop talking and the Sta. 4 firefighter [ Eng 59 ]would get the rest of the info with 58 hitting the road mostly in 60 or so sec. I pulled up to many working fires to find Volunteer firefighters either already standing there or in the building looking for people or the fire . Engine 58 & 59 have 800 gallon tanks and preconnect lines more scotts to handle the guys already on location .the firefighters would take the lines in and starting to attack the fire . As a rule we did not hit hydrants but had the tools to do so . The next in engine would supply 58 or 59 .That is what was taken away from the dept .
  20. The 3 stooge's in charge have asked the captains for a list of volunteers that will work over night to cover the Rye Brook station . 5 of the 7 company's so far have turned them down with no answer from the other 2 .
  21. How do the Chiefs stand , they did it was all there idea . Now Rye Brook has started there legal action and like you said it will now all come out . This may be just as good as The Stamford topic !
