Please allow me to invite you to the group called HazMat Placards to Success. This group will allow firefighters to discuss a step by step process for a Hazardous Materials response. From the firefighter to the hazmat technician. The first step has been posted in the group, with many more steps to come.
Thank you!

So it looks like I have a shot at going out to FDIC as a volunteer this year. Since I couldn't be sure I could go in time to be on the classroom team Diane said I could go out and volunteer with you guys, so looks like you will be seeing more of me this year! I'm just happy to get to go!! See you in April!!
Thanks for all you do.

Good to hear from you! Yup, I'll be in Indy all week. I'm teaching, but I don't know which day yet. No matter what, though, I'll be at opening ceremonies and the Brotherhood Bash with the pipes & drums. I'm trying to talk Maria into coming up to play with the band. We'll see... Stop by our FOOLS table at the Bash and say hi.
KTF,
Joe
Thanks for joining CSF (Common Sense Firefighting). It's a Fire ground decision making and leadership group. Join in any discussion at any time. There are always some good ones going. How many members on the engine and how many does your dept get on the first due alarm?
