We need to all stick together! Because like the one brother said" United we stand divided we fall" I also like the saying "I am not here for me, I am here for We and We are here for Them".
Thanks for joining Common Sense Firefighting (CSF). It's a decision - making page on the site. Jump into any of the discussions at any time you like. We've got some good one going right now. How many members do you get on the fiurst due alarm. That's large dept, I believe. If you're going to FDIC we're thinking of having a CSF get together one of the nites, probalbaly Tues at about 7 pm . If you're interested let us know on th CSF page
