@@hosedragger-204 Same, I am hoping after turning 23, joining the FRV (Fire Rescue Victoria) or NTFR (Northern Territory Fire and Rescue), One of the many Career fire service in Australia
This is cool to see because many years ago there were members from this station that came to Northern Cambria, PA and started another station. It is Cambria County Station 50 and we are also known as Hope Fire Company. We are kind of an offspring of them, we actually get each other’s mail sometimes, haha.
Untied steam and hose company 3 in fredrick county Md is the oldest firehouse that’s still in use of the original building in Maryland, y’all should check them out it’s pretty cool place and busy company
@@HeroesNextDoor I think it's a local thing from many years back. Many FDs have Squads, yet in Wisconsin less than 100 miles from the famous Squad companies in Chicago a Squad is a police car. In much of the Midwest they call them tenders not tankers. I guess it's just what they were called over the years.
E26 isn’t a Pierce Enforcer. When Pierce released the new Enforcer chassis back in 2014 the windshield was one pig wind shield with a good view. The cab on this engine looks like a Arrow XT.
Lancaster Co.,…Vol. FD….watch out for the posies! Manheim Fd. from what I heard is a soldi run company. But trust me, not all co’s are like this. Been there, done that.
Looks beautiful in the showroom, but the helmets and rubberized coat don't really go with that era. Also suggest you move that nozzle back so it sits on both beams, rather than resting its weight on the leather hose.
@@HeroesNextDoor American La France, my current station used to have one that my grampa rode when he was a member when I was young, I always loved them
What a beautiful, cozy station. I love these two young guys and how knowledgeable and dedicated they are. Also love that they use the roto rays.
I enjoyed listening to the younger guys and how they are staying involved too. Good bunch they have there

I'm a 5th generation volunteer firefighter up in northern Vermont and am working towards becoming the first ever career firefighter in the family.

Nice, they did the same thing here but oppisite, my local station became a service center, its nice to see how buildings get reused
Good bunch of guys. Firefighters are a different breed of good people. Awesome stuff

When are you coming to michigan. And fire departments are you visiting
Already done our first trip to Michigan. Headed to Colorado next. We started with Kentwood and Leland fire companies
@@HeroesNextDoor Awesome when will you upload the Kentwood video
@@HeroesNextDoor y’all should definitely visit Fort Morgan Fire Department in Colorado. They’re a great Department.
Remember kids, the first rule of being a volunteer is to let everyone know you’re a volunteer by wearing firefighter shirts in public.
😂🤣😂
Tanker 26 is a 2014 Volvo with 3,000 gallon Gallons of water and a 1,000 gallon per minute pump
Tenders come from the kitchen. Tankers carry water to fires. Lol
So why do you think the same apparatus is called different names across the country?

@@HeroesNextDoor probably because when requesting a "tanker" in areas prone to wildfire that is referring to a air attack asset
I really enjoy this channel all the content is well made. I definitely think you should try coming across to the uk
We need a sponsor to make that happen but maybe one day
