  1. Poughkeepsie Journal Condolances to the Family and Friends of the Chief and the City Of Beacon Police Department R.I.P.
  2. You're welcome hope to see you there
  3. Mark That's correct. The Dutchess Community College Fire Science Program is sponsoring a demo of the FIT-5 this Saturday the 22 at 0930. The demo will be held on the auto pad at DCDER. From what I hear parking will be limited as to a large turn out, so car pooling recommended. The demo should only take approx 15 - 20 mins. Hope to see everyone there.
  4. I heard something about an Upcoming EMTBRAVO Hot Tub convention ha ha jk :lol: I'm hoping Nate doesn't have any photos of myself anywhere lol
  5. Ha Ha Way to go Nate... EMTBRAVO'S newest Outreach!!!
  6. I have seen in recent posts here on our forum and also in comments left on Poughkeepsie Journal and Lohud Articles the ever increasing public opinion on the emergency services. Whether it be a Career v. Volunteer, Response times, or Speed, these comments continue to increase and are building a wall against us. So, I was wondering a couple things: 1- How does your department react to some of these comments? 2- How can we as an emergency serrvice truthfully inform the public of what we actually do?
  7. I voted for Senator McCain! On a more serious note I had a discussion with one of the guys at the station today and after somewhat of a debate we think that the President-Elect could be refering to our Local Law Enforcement because they technically are not Military personnel. So, maybe in his eyes they are civilian security. I don't know about you, but I still don't agree. I think it's a LARGE streach
  8. You Beat me to it. Thank You to all who are either here on this forum or are still serving all across America. Also, please know that it's not just today that you are thought about. -Justin J. Bohlmann
  9. I don't know about you but when I'm driving I'm not paying attention to the vehicle types. I would be more concern with the road instead of where the officers are hiding.
  10. My suggestion would be just what you said, do your minute-man lay and keep your bunny ears the same as you always have. It has to be a pretty difficult task to filp 200 ft of hose and a nozzle. The best way to figure out what will work best for you though is to spend the day pulling hose. Hope that helped.
  11. The worst is being awake for the time change. You're all set for only 5 more hours at work and then all of a sudden you have 6 left lol
  12. Congratulations Chief Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge
  13. Keep up the good work Brothers and Sisters
  14. I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope that there is sound explanation for this.

  16. I actually haven't seen them yet, waiting for the 2am re-run on FOX. Working nights messes up the TV scheduale
  17. If I'm not mistaken some agencies use products similar to this in Dutchess CO
  18. That is correct Fairview (Dutchess) is a drop site for any supplies
  19. Just wondering, and it could be an easy answer, how come when an incident alert is written, and may not be fully completed, it mysterious ends up with aditional information added or changed? I can see some, very little items, being changed by moderators, but I feel that this is almost like a censorship sometimes. Things get mysteriously changed and added. By no means is this an attack or outburst on any one person or the site, I am just curious...
  20. Nope what I'm talking about was that someone editted my incident alert without a ) my knowledge or b ) my aproval
  21. All I have to say on this topic is what goes around comes around. I sure hope that if this happened to me that my brothers and sisters will be there to help me. So lets get together and show our brother's and sisters that we will do the same.
