"We have seats, but we'd rather stand"

@martym.6274 2 жыл бұрын

Our local fire company never used jump seat and instead stood. I never understood that.

They stand so they can see where they are going (smoke in the sky, etc).

For some reason, we just can't put the job down! Happy to serve after you veterans, from this Colorado volunteer.

Just remember what an old Battalion Chief told me when I was a shaved tail rookie. He said, "Listen kid, if you walk OFF the property the same way you walked ON, thats half the battle"

My dad wanted to be a trucker since he was a kid. He's been doing it for damn near thirty years. Men like you guys have my respect for identifying what you want to do at a young age and making it happen.

@@TheOutlawMan Speak for yourself. God, can't put the job down, once a firefighter always a firefighter, it's in the blood, blah blah blah whatta load of horse shit. All self aggrandizing, hero bullshit. Too many guys believe their own hype. I did 32 in a busy paid department but when it was time, bye bye, and I don't miss a thing about it. Full of egos and self promoters and self proclaimed heroes. I have more respect for garbage men and construction workers out there day after day in all weather making less money and not getting recognition. The fire service served a purpose in my life and now it's over. There's more to life.

I can't believe how things have changed since I was a volunteer fireman and now have things change since I left. I was a volunteer fireman for St.helens Oregon for seventeen years

Can't fool you! Although 1983 is getting to be a long time ago too. 🙂

Fond memories of seeing open-cab fire engines, and firemen riding the tailboards.

@Just1American1966 4 жыл бұрын

I joined my local volunteer fire department in 1981, at age 15. Our first-up engine was a 1968 Ford/Atlantic Fire Apparatus 4x4 brush truck conversion, and our aerial unit was a 1941 (yes, 40 years old at the time!) Pirsch/LaFrance open-cab tractor-tiller combination unit. In that cab, behind the bench seat, was a post, and the red beacon sat atop it. It didn't even rotate all the way around, instead just swiveling back and forth. Love seeing clips of the old stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Wow flash back to my Grandparents hometown. My grandfather owned a bookstore in downtown Rochester back in the 60"s and 70"s and many firefighters would shop in his store. They had a fire response in downtown Rochester and my grandfather saw some firemen he knew and walkup behind them and lit an M80 firecracker it went boom. Little did he know they were on a bomb call. LOL. You can guess the rest.

What make is the brand of the tiller in this video.

@coontoonstudios 10 ай бұрын

I found an online picture of a vintage American LaFrance fire truck cab that had similar logo plate and lights on it, so maybe the tiller is the same brand?

Not much extra film footage of that, and no audio, unless you can locate a 16 mm optical audio projector.
