War years ending? Wasn't 1975 around the big budget crisis?

  "Vbcapt", yes that is correct about the budget crisis and huge cutbacks and layoffs for the FDNY in 1975. But the War Years were in full swing in 1975. It didn't start to slow down until around 1978. It was the busiest of times with the biggest cutbacks.
