I'm gonna sing a song to these beautiful souls:When you were standing in the wake of devastation When you were waiting on the edge on the unknown And with the cataclysm raining down Insides crying save me now you were there and possibly alone Do you feel cold and lost in desperation You build up hope but failures all you've known remember all the sadness and frustration and let it go. Let it go And a burst of light that blinded every angel as if the sky had blown the heavens into stars. You felt the gravity of tempered grace. Falling into empty space No one there to catch you in there arms Do you feel cold and lost on desperation but failures all you've known Remember all the sadness ans frustration. And let it go.let it go God bless everyone
Gonna try asking this again if I may, on that one truck that is parked right in front of the house, think its a bucket truck, on the side of it it has some of those Breathing air cannisters attached to it, been trying to find out how those actually work in regards to the bucket portion of the truck itself, already guessing that before the truck leaves for its call whatever it is, those cannisters are MAYBE filled with actual Breathing air, but after the truck arrives at its destenation, how are those Cannisters actually used, I mean are the firefighters that work in the bucket portion of the truck, do they actually use those canisters in some sort of fashion and if not, how are those actually used?????
Andrew Silva: the breathing air bottles on the tower ladder are pressurized via the same method used to pressurize the bottles carried on fire fighters backs they are just larger. the larger size simply means that they can be used for a longer period of time that the smaller bottles. there are air lines that are run to the bucket and allow for the fire fighters to hook up to them quickly. from there they work in exactly the same manner as the backpack style of Self Contained Breathing Apparatus. Air cannot be drawn from the fire ground as it is contaminated by the combustion products.
brian4116; Brian it is interesting that about 7 hours after I answer Andrew's question you answer it saying pretty much the same thing. Where did you serve?
Fires are suppose to be hot, but we still have to put them out. We run to the danger remember? They are dangerous though. Not like a ground or second floor. LZFD retired
