    Been a while but I just checked in and the site looks good. As always, lots of good info. I will try to be a little more active. Studying for the upcoming test has taken a lot of my attention away from normal routines.

    I recently completed the promtional process for Deputy Chief. Came out 3rd overall with no jobs expected over the course of the 2year list. Good learning experience anyway and not really looking to get into a car anytime soon. I like the truck co. work and still enjoy going into workers.
    I look forward to reading and posting good stuff here.

    I would not be the one to lock the thread. Thats not the point. The point is that all this has become is a rant about 786 vs. the volunteers, thats a reality like it or not. I think we have determined that the best interest of the public and their safety is paramount in the issue. Carry on...

    On October, 9, 2012, The City of Norwalk Fire Department took delivery of a 42' North River Marine Fire Boat. The boat has been named "The Robert Bedell" in honor and memory of one of our own who died in the line of duty several years ago.

    I missed the article in the local newspapers, but I have been told that Belltown and Glenbrook each received a $20,000 operating budget allotment for 2008-2009. Seems to me that this is a message from the mayor. I think we all realize here that you cannot run a volunteer department on $20,000 per year. Utilities alone on a building the size of Belltown's will cost that much in only a few months. Not to mention the training budget and needed equipment purchases. I guess the saga continues.

    As part of the force realignment plan put forth by Chief McCarthy a few years back, Station 1 will be the permanent home to Rescue 1. The final destination for the Tactical Rescue is still not clear, but it could be married to T2 at the new HQ. Once the remodel is done at Station 4 on Westport Avenue, T1 will go there permanently, giving us 3 multi-unit stations in the city and possibly a Captain at each one. Its a great plan, we support it and it has worked well so far.
    I have a schematic of the training wall designed by Captain Markowitz, once I can find it, I'll post it up.

    One of the replies to the article about the councilman ripping the project is from yours truly. The building is awesome and we cannot wait until it is finished and we can move into it. The training wall that will be in the center of the building will be impressive and I believe it will eventually be an article topic in the trade journals.
