70'sChevyGirl Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Jason, I am really sorry to hear about your fellow firefighters. I am extremely thankful that you were not involved though. Someone up there was looking after you. I will add them to my prayer list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAYBEN Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I was checking my email today and noticed my daily dose of 'The Secret List' and come to see its the same accident as you have posted.. obviously we see a bunch of these reports, but it hits you a little different when its someone you're acquainted with or their crew..

Kingsford Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 You guys were bored with that piece anyways, time to get a new one.. (inserts a little humor to break the mood a little) Right now the going joke is "Tell Dave that next time to just write a proposal for a Q Siren instead of wrecking a truck" Our Chief is Anti-Q Siren so none of our trucks have Q's and Dave is like in love with them. Oh and on that note. I contacted Federal Signal today and they are donating a Q Siren to give to Dave as a welcome home present! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Cited for driving without a license? Are you f'ing kidding me? Really? I got rammed by a guy doing 50mph years ago, as I was waiting to turn, and he had NO license and NO insurance and while that's unlawful, he got in mommy's car and rode home. WTH? To me, that's a jail able offense! I hope the guys pull through 100% and I'm glad you were held up by a train. Alexis needs the work! Give them a call again!

My wife and I still have you guys in our prayers. Please post pics of the new equipment. Had a meeting tonight about new equipment.... Insurance gave us $160,000 for the tanker. Alexis Fire spec'ed us a new Tanker priced at $230,000 out the door with no hose or equipment on it so we are looking around $250,000 for a new tanker. We wont be seeing that for at least another 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
