Hi Chief I would have to agree. I realize so many Vollie companies are losing members due to attrition or just lack of interest. I do think more should be done to draw interest to the volunteer services. More advertising , Mention training and why its important especially where Vollies are so...

Thanks again Chief.

Chief any additional information on the response issue that You may have heard?

I hear You Chief My Dad used to say when they pull the Box they expect us to show no matter what the call.

I worked out of Monroe Co Pa, Station 29 When Lehman Co or Pike Co were short we put our crews on the road. We always supplied a BLS in most cases. This could have turned out bad.

Was it a manpower issue? Could not get 1 rig on the road?

So 39 Truck only tiller in the Bronx. I guess they are last right? Again, that Truck takes a beating. Hope they are up soon.

Looks like this thread was reviewed some years back. How were high ladders different from regular ones? Pretty good info there.

Only Firefighter can tell a story like this. We were at a fire and a Car rolled up on us on fire. Cant make this stuff up!

Continued to RIP My Brothers.
