Very well done, thank you for taking the time to post the information and remind all of us about what is really important.
Really neat picture for training. to me, there is a lot to talk about, and being an early picture, we can focus on the fire and not on what the crews are doing right or wrong.
You know, I don't care to debate the actual question, but Lloyd asks a good question. Consider how much money the government has handed out to bail-out the auto industry, the financial pigs, and others. Lloyd makes a great point - why not assist (...

Many thanks for the welcoming comments. Unfortunately, I'm a little late in getting involved in the events here on FirefighterNation, but hope to catch up with the group in short order.
My apologies for the FDIC link, but that one's out of my control. I know PennWell has been advertising it in their catalog, but I'm not aware of any other links that might be available (I actually don't have a copy myself).
Anyway, many thanks for your interest - let me know if I can help in any way.
Take care and stay safe brother!!!
