Spirit of Oklahoma and Spirit of Louisiana

[baileyjeff]

Does anyone know if these 2 pieces of apparatus still exist?

I think the Spirit of Louisiana is on display at their state fire marshal or state fire college

The Spirit of Oklahoma was decommissioned from the department in 2019.

The Pride of Louisiana (FH00001) was last in service just over a year ago now, in October 2023. I had the opportunity to get some pictures of it while it was the squad 2nd piece spare for Squad 288 with some friends. It was taken out of the spare pool shortly after this.

No. It was a Ferrara and, I think, mostly operated out of 283.

Last known to be at West Hamilton Beach. The truck was donated back to Louisiana after Katrina - I saw it at Camp Algiers. After that, it ran at NOFD, then went back to the Louisiana SFMO. Then back to Long Beach, NJ, and then to WHBVFD.

As mentioned above it's in the procession of the Louisiana State Fire Marshal.

It very much is.
Louisiana donated a few trucks. The rescue that spent majority of the time as the Decon support rig, and the aforementioned engine. There may have been another rig, can’t recall off the top of my head
