Charlie "memorymaster", yes, I have heard that song sung by Bobby Vinton. I saw him in person way back in 2005 at the Mohegan Sun Arena and that song sure brought back some great memories of a different time. So, Charlie why don't you and I, and I'm sure a few others here, take a look back to a...

This Television series ran from 1977 - 1983 called "CHiPS". It was about two California Highway Patrol Motorcycle Officers Do you remember this one? "I do - it was one of my favorites just like the TV Show Emergency".

"Emergency" was my favorite TV show back in the 1970s. I also have a DVD collection of that show. As a young volunteer firefighter (Fairfield, Ct) we would gather around the television while drinking our coffee and "WE ALL WANTED TO BE LIKE Johnny Gage". "Johnny D", aka "johnd248" from...

Even though the plaque says, "50 YEARS", apparently it should actually read "60 Years" (Sixty Years) of Unwavering Commitment, Dedication and Passion to the FDNY of E-319 and the Community of Middle Village. This according to "AuxWarYearsCapt" - Doug M. He also made the trip up to NYC this...

I remember John Walsh talking about his father (William Walsh) being on the Blue Hills Fire Department. "Chicken Wing Man", in the 1960s (and 50's) I used to go with my father to pick up his paycheck at the firehouse in Bridgeport, Ct. Somewhere on this site I think there is a picture of me...

"Signal73", I forgot Matt's wife on the job at 73/42 A family of FIVE FIREFIGHTERS - WOW. I wonder what they discuss when they are all together. I somewhat relate as my father and brother were both on the job in Bridgeport and I was at a place called Norwich in Ct.

Also, congratulations to another member of this site. That being "O'Mally" who has also begun his career as a FDNY Probationary Firefighter.

Yes, great job done by FF Matt Walsh If I remember correctly, his father Paul Walsh retired New Britian FD. Also known for his GREAT FIRE DEPARTMENT PAINTINGS. His grandfather, John Walsh retired Hartford Fire Captain, then Willimantic, Ct Chief of Department. His uncle, Jay Walsh retired FDNY.

Congratulations on a job well done. "XPFD3" your son making TWO GRABS in 2024. I'm sure your son learned a lot about the job from your guidance. So, give yourself a "pat on the back" too.

FDNY's fireboat "The Firefighter" which had been restored and docked at the Mystic Seaport Musuem in Mystic, Ct needs a new home. The Firefighter, the most decorated fireboat in the world is on the hunt for a new home. It has been owned by the non-profit group "Fireboat Firefighter Musuem"...

AMAZING that NO One was HURT or KILLED here.
