    6/17/22 Queens 5th Alarm Box 6068

    Looking at the picture from the rear of the fire building they did a great job keeping it from really getting out of hand. The wind was over 20mph today. This really could have been a much worse situation, the FDNY does its best work in the worst conditions. Well done men!

    Everything Old Is New Again

    Years ago in downtown Brooklyn by Old Fulton St in Dumbo there was a garage where I believe they repaired patrol cars. I worked there a few times and once I remember they had an early '70s Fury in the original colors in the repair garage. I also saw it parked outside once or twice. I'm sure it...

    Jimmy Doolittle and his Tokyo Raiders

    True American Heroes Rest In Peace and thank you. Also highlights what was Japanese mistreatment of US airmen. This continued to a greater extent when B-29 crewmen were captured.

    E206 area

    Water Tender(s)

    The volunteer company in my town here has a tanker (36). Its obviously newer although its a 1982 FMC 2500 gal and has a pump. I think the issue here is water supply more than brush fires.
