BFD1054

First let me say that my thoughts and prayers are with this young man, his family and his brothers at the East Franklin Fire Co. My girlfriend goes to school at Rutgers, which is in New Brunswick. East Franklin borders New Brunswick and they work together quite often. A friend of my girlfriends' is a NBPD officer and vollies with one of the companies in Franklin Township and was at this tragic fire. There a several companies within this township, all of which are very well trained and prepared, not to mention busy! They are a great group of guys and from what i was told, FF Appuzio was no exception. From what i hear, he was a very enthusiastic & aggressive FF who was always taking fire/ems courses to better himself. May FF Kevin Appuzio forever rest in peace and keep a watchful eye over his brother firemen. jamboreflh...As 648 stated, FF's were forced back by heavy fire conditions and were unable to get in to conduct a search right away. Keep in mind, the floor collapsed beneath these FF's, so obviously the integrity of the structure was already going to s**t. Such a horrible tragedy. These guys put it all on the line and made a valient effort to rescue this woman and unfortunately one of them lost his life, as well as the victim.

Heres some webpages for various Training Centers in the area. I couldn't find any info on any Mask Confidence courses during the time you were looking for. My suggestion would be to continuosly check the websites for updates. Westchester County FTC: http://www.westchestergov.com/emergserv/training.htm Putnam County: http://www.pcbes.org/ - Go to the menu on the left and click on "fire" and that will lead you to the training schedule. Rockland County: http://www.co.rockland.ny.us/Fire/bulletins/firetraining.htm NYS Office of Fire Prevention & Control (Montour Falls & Camp Smith): http://www.dos.state.ny.us/fire/academy.html Hope this helps, good luck!

I graduated with Sean from Hen Hud in 2000 and was very saddened to hear of his passing. Sean was a great kid, he was quiet, but outgoing. Another tragic, sad loss for the USMC. A young man, serving his country & making a better life for himself and to die so suddenly...just doesn't seem fair. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Jackson family and the USMC. May Sean rest in peace.
