Enjoyed your elevator class last month in Brookhaven NY for Lt. DiBernado memorial training seminar. It has been a long time since I've seen a good class on elevators and elevator rescues.

No, it was on the homepage of the FE Training Community site (this site). There is 4 profiles that randomly pop up and at the time I was on, it was yours! And yes, you probably did see something about the Downey Award. Your eyes did not decieve you. Not sure it is warranted but I will be getting it next month.

Be safe Bro.

How are you doing Bro? Saw your mug on the front page and figured I would drop you a line. Hope all is going well for you in retirement. Witchita HOT was great. The elevator rescue class was fantastic. If you have any plans in the future to be in CA drop me a line, Maybe we can put together a class while you are out here.

Thanks again Brother. Be safe and Have Fun!!!

And while were at it, make them clean the fittings regularly. Now that none of the fittings are brass the newer guys are not taking the compartments apart like we used to.
There was no better way to get to know the apparatus than to clean the compartments one by one, whether they needed it or not!
Merry Christmas, I hope Santa treats you well.

Thanks for accepting into your "friends". I wanted to mention how fantastic your coverage of the VPS systems was. I have been collecting info from all over on ways deal with systems like VPS when we come across them. I caught a glimpse of a training video put on for FDNY. Do you have any idea if its available so I can present it to our training division?
Thanks again, enjoy retirement.

Thanks for joining CSF (Common Sense Firefighting) It's a fireground decision making thread on the page. Jump into any discussion at any time. I was just at the Rock in Sept. with the IAFF on the FF survival test class. I met a bunch of the guys and Salka was teaching with us. Good time. Last time I was there was 1996. It's changed a bit since. We're getting CSF meet and greet at FDIC on Tuesday of that week, if you'll be there then. Location to be announced.

At 9:02am on November 2, 2008, Barry Aptt said…: I too read the WNYF article and I also found a Pdf from FDNY regarding these. As others have written that they haven't seent them in their districts yet, they can't be far off in the future. Thanks for bringing this issue to light. I had not heard of it prior.
