EJS1810....LOL, i always wondered why they had those stupid things? I took a class (annex site) out there awhile back and was suprised to see that Katonah used those for Chiefs vehicles! I mean, those S-10's are way too small, even with the "extended cab." On the other hand though, at least they were assigned vehicles, i guess. Katonah, congrats on taking delivery of the new Chiefs vehicles, as well as your new Tanker-6! They all were in desperate need of replacment, especially the tanker! Nice to see you got the 6-man cab so you can actually have a full crew ride on the rig! Again, congrats and best of luck with them all!

Hey Jimmy, thats not true....Buchanan has called you guys in m/a. We've used you for Haz-Mat, CO calls & even as a RIT! We know first hand what you guys are capable of and what you have to offer, so we're never shy to call you!

Firefighter57... I found triple trim on the Fire Store.com, but it was for helmets, i assume you want it for gear? They may also sell triple trim for gear, you could try, but i couldn't find it. The only advise i could give you is to try Trilex/Firefighter-1 in Passaic New Jersey. That is where i bought my gear and also had alterations made there. They are excellent and do all work on premises and there's like a 1-2 day turn-around on gear/alterations! Heres their webpage: http://www.trilexcleanfiregear.com/

Congrats on the new rig delivery Jim! I just heard this news about an hour ago by one of your partners-in-crime lol! Sounds like a real sweet rig! Best of luck with it!

Real nice webpage dedicated to New Jersey Fire apparatus and action shots! http://www.njfirepictures.com/home1.htm

Bababoosky...I'm not sure to tell you the truth. I spent quite a bit of time trying to find out more info on this last night to no avail. If it was an LODD, i would think there would have been more coverage/info on it?

Capt...something get f***ed up in the fire service? No way lol! As i stated, i believe the whole "10-75" things has its pro's, but definately needs to be worked on a bit. Personally, i'd rather use plain talk/english like some of you have said. Capt, maybe you can answer this (or someone from 60); I thought the county wanted agencies to start using plain talk, am i mistaken?

hudson...great topic, concerns and comments! The last time i saw the county 10-Codes, 10-75 was on there as "working fire." However, i can't seem to find the 10-codes on the DES website at this time. As far as confusion, i definately agree. With Yonkers & Mount Vernon neighboring one-another and working together quite often, i could see how their codes would be confusing. The different meaning of a 10-29 for both cities is quite interesting, i never knew the meaning for MVFD. In Buchanan (Tri-Village), we have entered a 10-75 assignent into the CAD system at 60-Control. I know Montrose has the same, as does Croton, however i am unsure about Verplanck. This is how it works; an officer (or first unit on scene) reports a working fire. All they then have to do is transmit a 10-75 and 60-Control then dispatches the appropriate departments/apparatus. For example, if a "10-75" is transmitted in Buchanan, 60 will re-tone Buchanan for a working fire, as well as dispatch Croton's FASTeam & Montrose TL8 to the scene, as well as hold Verplanck as the covering agency. In Montrose, a "10-75" transmission will summons the response of Buchanan Utility-12 & Croton's FASTeam to the scene. It makes the IC's job much easier, rather than spitting out all the requests for m/a. I do agree however, that this system still has some loose ends and should have every department on the same page.

AIR-2 will be the 2nd aircraft in for a serious MVA w/entrapment. 1513hrs-AIR-2 will land on Rt. 9, north of the County Line.

CPAGE...the reason that the m/a company (Beford Hills) responded with their truck co. is because that is their FAST/RIT rig. They respond with Tower Ladder-57 as a FAST assignment, whether a truck co. is needed or not. Also, i recently heard that L43 (Mount Kisco's Seagrave straight stick) may be out of service, i could be wrong tough? Hope that helps.
