  1. I have a seven l.e.d. streamlight.....it is so bright that it blinds people when they look into it. It is the Propolyer 4AA LED.....here is the link for the streamlight website http://www.streamlight.com/product/product.aspx?pid=24 I also have the helemt band for my helmet...it works great and is cheaper then most
  2. Still I would like to know more about this intresting rig....i mean it has to be cooler then it looks and it looks pretty cool
  3. Latham Rescue 4 as pictured in the picture provided is very strange looking. Does any one have any more pictures of this rig as well as the specifications of this very strange rig. What is on the back of the rig???? Thank you in advance
  4. I know that Bedfords Engine 108 was on stand-by down some where in the city on 9/11 but where I just dont remember
  5. I was up infront of the New Cannan Ladder at the Somers parade....it was pretty sweet talking to the guys about the rig and seeing how cool it is.
  6. What are they going to do with their old rigs
  7. They are thinking about using them at my job at the Ornithology (Bird) department at the Bronx Zoo. -they are hypoallergenic -they wont harm the animals -they come in bright colors so that they dont scare the animals -they are alot of fun to wear
  8. It seems like a good idea to allow for a dual power source flashlight. When the main recharging battery pack dies then you could switch to the AA battery which is a great idea. This allow means that it will also be cheaper so if you break it (which most likely wont happen because I have only ever seen a broken streamlight after it was run over by the rig) then it will be relativly cheap to replace if it does. I think that I am going to buy one.

  13. [attachmentid=1163][attachmentid=1163]From http://www.optonline.net/Article/Feeds?CID...icle%3D19460524 "N.Y. Trooper Shot in Convict Search Dies Sun Sep 3, 8:53 PM CASSADAGA, N.Y. - One of two troopers ambushed while searching for an escaped convict died Sunday of his injuries, and state police vowed to capture the man they believe killed him. Joseph Longobardo was shot in the leg Thursday night while staking out the property of a former girlfriend of Ralph "Bucky" Phillips. He died at a Buffalo hospital, a day after his leg was amputated, with his wife at his side, State Police Superintendent Wayne Bennett said. His death came in the midst of one of the largest manhunts in New York history. State police warn that Phillips, who has been on the run for five months, could hurt anyone who gets in his way. "You can run but you can't hide. Sooner or later, I don't care how good you are, we will find you," Bennett said. Troopers held a candlelight vigil Sunday for Longobardo, 32, and Donald Baker Jr., 38, who was also shot in the woods of Chautauqua County. Baker, who was shot in the back, remained in critical condition in a medically induced coma, police said. "We are not going to put up with it," police spokeswoman Rebecca Gibbons said after the vigil. "He's angered a family, and we're going to be out here until he is in custody." Hundreds of police, 140 a shift, searched rural western New York for Phillips, the prime suspect in the sniper-style shootings. Others gathered at the vigil in Hamburg, about 10 miles south of Buffalo. Phillips, 44, has been on the run since April, when he cut his way out of an Erie County jail with a can opener. Since then, he has been suspected in the nonfatal shooting of another trooper in June near Elmira in southern New York, and police said he has survived on the run by stealing about 15 vehicles and breaking into hunting camps and a gun shop. Police hadn't been able to interview the injured troopers because of their conditions. One trooper managed to return fire Thursday, but police did not say whether the sniper, who fired from less than 100 yards away in the woods, was hit. Authorities say his disdain for police was well known. Sheriff's officials said that when he was released or transferred from the Chautauqua County jail several years ago, he left officials a note threatening "to splatter pig meat all over Chautauqua County." State police were hoping a new $225,000 reward for help in Phillips' capture would inspire residents to come forward. Six local people have been arrested in recent days and charged with harboring Phillips, including his daughter and former girlfriend. Outside the state police barracks in Fredonia, more than 100 troopers saluted as the American and state police flags were raised and then lowered to half staff. One trooper sang "Amazing Grace." Trooper Mark O'Donnell said Longobardo's death did not change the way they viewed their mission to catch Phillips. "You can't be more determined," O'Donnell said. "We were determined from the day he shot Sean Brown," the trooper wounded in June." Rest In Peace.............they will get the S.O.B.
