I looked through this gallery on your site Bill - very nice series. Obvious manpower shortage in the begining - good stop despite that. Good work EFFD.

Will you be posting any from the PFD job?

At the risk of highjacking this thread, I don't care if the pics of ANY fires are action packed or not - I enjoy seeing them for the quality, and more importantly - to learn from them.

These EFFD pics are not of a major worker, but still they capture me -I LOVE to look at each member in a picture and tear it apart - what gear are they wearing and how? What tools do they have? Apparatus placement? How did the fire effect the building? How did the building react to fire? The Command Post...ANY tips I can pick up.

I enjoy seeing the PFD pics to see people and how they work - to put faces to names...

No matter how simple - I enjoy all of your pics.

I should have used "disect" in place of "tear apart".

Great shots Bill again, Excellent work East Fishkill and Dan I love the pictures as well, especially the ones of the members working, the faces and what they are doing.

If you don't learn, you're in the wrong business.
