Title: A Day In The Fire Station!
Post by: baden-wurttemberg on December 23, 2010, 19:44:57
Hello Playmofirends  :wave:,

Today I took some pics of a new fire station I put together. My friend Jeff will give you a tour of the small fire station.

"Oh Hello! I'm Jeff! This here is the Fire Station. Let me give you a little tour. I take care of new emails, new updates, or any other thing in my computer".

Excellent station tour bw!  

To clear up any confusion Panos, any chiefs in PCFD or line officers are the only personnel that wear white helmets. When I was a firefighter long ago, I refused to even drive any apparatus, because I wanted the adrenalin rush of packing up to actually fight fire, doing rescues, or treating patients.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the white helmet!! And yeah you'd do more good by actually fighting the fire!

Yeah, there were times when fighting arson fires, & finding large holes cut in floors hidden by floor rugs nailed at the corners, I wondered if I made the right choice :-\!

The arsonists would cut large square holes through the floor in old houses with basements to delay our attack to extinguish the fire, then they took rectangular floor rugs & nailed the corners in place so when we entered the burning house we would fall through the floor as the rugs gave way under our weight. In the basement, positioned under the floor holes they would put old furniture like tables upside down, & sharp debris like metal storage shelves, etc., to injure or attempt to kill us when we fell to the floor below. Our training had taught us to reach ahead & touch the floor as we advanced hoses into the building, & luckily we could feel the hole under the floor & radioed our superviser who commanded everyone out of the building to change attack plans.

Greedy people trying to collect on insurance claims, or looking to get their,...never mind :-[! They would booby trap the building to delay our efforts to extinguish the fire, trying to let it get strong enough to destroy the evidence of accelerates, traps, etc., by total destruction. Our lives were considered collateral damage, but arson investigators are very keen on finding out what has happened ;).

Thanks for an interesting tour, Julian.  I enjoyed it very much indeed.   :wave:

I like the custom with the tape.  I've used a similar system but I found some decals which were two stripes just the right width apart.
