Americans are in …
Americans are in big trouble…Politicians all over the USA are cutting firefighters. People need to become active and have a voice on how their community is run. Every City-Township-Village, should have a charter amendment that mandates a certain number of Firefighters based on population period. This will make the Mayor cut the golf course & library staff when money gets tight. Leave the dedicated professional life savers ALONE!
Phenomenal job by …
Phenomenal job by our brothers in Orlando. I’m an Lt. in Fall River, MA, and our dept. is being hatcheted by inept politicians. They already cut our manpower by 45 men, and their actually asking for more. Fight the good fight brothers. Don’t make it easy for these Sleez-Bag politicians to simply dump on us like we are second-class citizens. My prayers go out to our brothers who were laid-off, and to those who are still working short-staffed; Stay Safe.

Excellent job by all involved; Mom, FF crews and dispatch. This is how it supposed to work. When you have adequate staffing. When 911 is manned by competent dispatchers. When a Mother protects her children. God Bless all of you.
And for those of you suffering the wrath of the budgetary axe, share this with your city councils, mayors, congressman, senators, civic leagues. Anyone who will listen. 835
