Already?!?!? Didn't they just recently hire Chief Kanterman from Mohegan Tribal FD?

The Chief was hired on a 1 year contract that expires June 1. Also, what is the point in requiring the Chief of the department to be an EMT- B ? Is he going to be running out on medical calls ?

Should the Chief be required to have FF1, FF2, Ladder Ops, etc? Is he going to be running into burning buildings? How about AVET? is he going to be running the jaws?

See what I'm getting at? Wouldn't it be good to have an idea of how and why things are done if you are going to be in charge of those things?

Based on how lean they run that department I think it is conceivable he will run medical calls, drive the ladder and clean the floors.

Didn't they hire a retired fdny chief?

He was retired from FDNY, then worked at a chemical plant in Jersey for awhile, then Mohegan, now Wilton. Also teaches at UNH.

Got it, he was up at the academy today for the seminar, bunch of the guys were talking to him about the FF position that closed today.
