Jim, I hear Wilson has tested and put in service the new Globe Excel turnout gear with the new quantim lining. Have you tested it or anyone you know been issued it. Would love to know what ya'll think about it. Thanks.
Man you and Hardin don't waste any time, gloating. I would never do that to a friend, kick him when's he's down. LOL Good Luck the rest of the way. What's new in NC.
Hey Jim, I have to start checking this site more often sorry about getting back to you. Hanging around Hardin and Summey at FDIC, like always lot's of fun. Lot's of talk about cutbacks and crap but right now that's all it is. We cancelled a class in Jan, when added to Retirements puts us down a few hundred guys. Apparatus still falling apart, companies riding around in brush trucks and pick up trucks so it's just like they're out of service, used mostly for manpower. Right now it's a wait and see attitude. weather finally warming up in the 80's the last 2 days but falling back to the 50's tomorrow. Business has been kind of slow on our group, lot's of small stuff but by the time we roll in the other companies have it taken care of. Take Care of yourself, say hey to the boys and I'll holler at you soon.
Welcome, to the greatest training site in the world! This is where the serious trainers come together and grow as a family. I would like to invite you to visit the HazMat Group called HazMat News & Training. Feel free to share your thoughts. Todd C. McKee
Hey Jim,
Sorry about I took so long to get back to you. 4 alarm fire in 3 story wood frame, 6 family. One company got caught in basement when fire got behind them. Mayday transmitted but all members got out ok. One other member from different company to hospital for heat exhaustion and another for a broken wrist. Still trying to find out details on mayday. indy was awesome. Had great time with Hardin & Summey. That was my first time and it was well worth it. Not sure if I can make Baltimore just yet. Bro I need your address, I want to send you a Tshirt, so when you get a chance pass it this way. Holler at Wes and Dustin for me and I'll talk to you, I mean holler at you later.
