  1. FF saves a life he's a hero too soon forgotten. FF gets drunk wrecks a vehicle kills a civilian, FF gives all of us a BIG black eye! Go figure?
  2. =D> Congrats!!!!!! It'll be GRRRRRRRREEEAAAATTTT to have another FI from our local area!!!!! =D>
  3. I've had success with Mothers aluminum polish and Nev-r-dull. They both require a lot of hard work and "elbow grease", but the end result is well worth the work.
  4. I agree with you too, cap. Too many people keep too busy minding everybody elses business and complaining about the little things that they have no time to mind their own! Wyat they don't realize is the fact that the sign may very well provide them with some important information!
  5. Happy Birthday, Seth and MANY returns!!!!!
  6. First of all Congrats to our newest instructors!!!! =D> BUT don't be discouraged by the length of time they take to process. I have been with NYC DEP for over 25 years and the one thing I've learned is that Governmental entities seem to have 2 speeds Slow and stop , but once the paperwork gets started, it Will get fininshe even if at a "snails pace". Anyway CONGRATS and GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
  7. Yup definitely better than Third Watch has gotten to be!
  8. Looks like now is a good time to be careful not to abuse these lights, since the State could just turn around and restrict their use to Police only.
  9. Guess we'll just have 2 build a fleet of arks [-(
  10. I do still have a couple old film types they're in my trunk don't even know if they still work. Now i use a Samsung Digimax V4 4.0 megapixel paid about $350.00 for it quite small, takes excellent pix. I like it a lot. It's a good pocket sized unit.
  11. though it's a shame that the vehicle got damaged but it was an accident, and accidents do happen, What's more important is the fact that nobody was injured. Had someone been in the passenger's seat there could or should I say would have been serious PI.
  12. You guys were absolutely right GREAT show!!!!! =D> =D>
  13. Here's a site to check out: fdnylodd.com. When the page loads, go to Remember 9-11 clip. It'll give you something to think about!
  14. Yes Croton Falls is working on an addition to Station #2 in North Salem. Not out to bid yet but it's getting close. Gonna add 4 bays below ground and several rooms/offices above. I 'm not too sure, but First week in November seems to be possible start date.
  15. OK, time to GO this "genius" has been on there too long!
  16. Your'e right I remember seeing it for a long time. Somebody told me that it's still out there somewhere, but I haven't seen it in years. But I will say that I still miss the old truck. It served us well!!!
  17. Jeff is right about the step van which, due to the awful color was known by some as "The Billious Bomb". It was pretty bad, compared to its predecessor. The truck replaced by the step van was a 1958 Chevrolet Utility Body with 4 Indian tanks in the back. It also had a long bench seat positioned lenghtwise. Compartments on the sides had a variety of hand tools, brush fire tools council rakes and brooms,etc. It had portable pump and generator with 4 portable flood lights, all of which were also up on the rear deck. It also carried Resuscitator and basic (VERY basic) first aid equipment. Prior to that, the first Patrol 8 was an old telephone truck-1952 or 1953 utility type. I really don't know too much about that one because when I joined CFFD in 1963 the white 4x4 was there. The "billious bomb" was replaced by Rescue 28, originally a Saulsbury box on a 1985 Ford chasis.which was replaced by the current GK Simon Duplex, and was refurbed by GK and is now located in CFFD Station 2, and now numbered as Utility 28.
