Dear Friend,

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!

Hey Brother

Did you see the video posted on your Forum? Unfortunately it ends just before you declare you're about to lose your lunch, but the effect is there none the less. Let me know what you think!

Brother Chad...It was great to finally meet you. Sorry I wasn't able to come and hang on Saturday; I had my daughter to look after. I hope we can get you up here again, maybe in the warmer months and do a little recreating...maybe some fly fishing for some monster Grayling or Salmon.
