    I just left the service after an injury and family schedules conspired against me. I miss it, but what can you do. Love the ladder- we had two engines, two tankers, two rescue box trucks plus two medical rigs and a brush truck. No need for a ladder in this area because there are no tall buildings, but some neighboring departments did. Fun stuff, but spraying a monitor off a 70' stick sure made for some swaying. Stay safe out there.

    Ha ha! Yeah... we use LifeFlight a lot due to all the outdoorsy stuff, which is usually a helicopter, but occasionally we get a fixed wing!

    Oh yeah! We have an ARFF, too! :)
