One of the coolest experiences was the time that nobody wanted to use their Scott Packs while they were putting out an attic fire in a newly renovated house......A heat lamp was placed too close to the plants, and the pot was on fire......Whoever heard of a brush fire in an attic?
Chief didn't get mad at us for disobeying orders that day.
However, I was most proud when every department on Long Island (Nassau and Suffolk) sent at least one truck to a parade down the Long Island Expressway to demonstrate our support for the troops. It was a beautiful sight, flashing lights as far as the eye can see. On that clear day, there were fire trucks forever.....
