Engine 41
Posing for a memorable picture right after ventilating a downtown restaurant. The building's ventilator caught on fire and pushed smoke rather than fresh air throughout the entire building. Fortunately, it self-extinguished upon our arrival. Since starting with the FD, the fellow (second to last on the right) has been a great help to me in learning how to become a better firefighter. He is very diligent in responding to calls even in the wee hours of the night. He has been a volunteer firefighter for over 11 years. Wow!
Engine 41, is a 1986 fire engine made by Pierce. She still works quite well and only has about 30,000 plus miles under her belt (no pun intended). We did have an incident were some of the Engine’s generator wiring caught on fire on the scene of a dumpster fire. Needless to say that was quite embarrassing. Great we had our hoses out already and began aiming at our Engine; I think the cops found it quite amusing.
