    Happy Birthday "Little Ms. Field Day" and Mr. Roughneck

    Happy Birthday, Cincinnati Fire Department


    On April 1, 1853, the Cincinnati Fire Department became the first fully paid professional fire department in the United States. Cheers to the CFD, you look great for being 165!

He was on a 3 days on/ 4 days off rotation, or something. I remember seeing him in the grocery store dressed in gear (sans coat) with other firemen buying groceries for the firehouse. As a member of ARES, I have been deployed at the fires houses just in time for supper, and never turned down an invitation to dine with the crew. I helped clean tables, and load the dishwasher. If only our president had a ant's ass sized bit of ethics, and professionalism that the
    fire fighters/EMTs/Paramedics always seem to have. I have lived in volunteer townships. I looked in to being a volunteer. The time requirements scared me off.
