I can't wait to get out of grad school and get my job with Raytheon. Maybe they will let me volunteer at MFD part time? I've got my Mod-1 and First Responder.
Mosher, what a Ham " special kind of person to work in antarctica" yeah right, I've always said you are "Special" Keep it real Mosher, Your old buddy Chippy.
When you need mutual aid do you call South Pole VFD? lol...just kidding...had to say it. Awesome group of people there. To be a firefighter is one thing. To do this in Antarctica...whole new level.
Given that you’ve no clue about anything, you can’t even spell New Zealand, it’s good that you didn’t go. So you wouldn’t get vaccinated! Imagine going to Antarctica and giving everyone you were near Covid, you’re in an enclosed environment in close proximity to hundreds of people at Mc Murdo. !! Smooth brain.
I notice that in the USA, institutions take things very seriously and professionally, take pride in what you do.
Its nice to see some things dont change .I wintered over in that firehouse the first year it was built,WO71-72. Great experience!
Great coverage
I was there in summer support 1979/80 . What an incredible place.Always wanted to go back,guess this is as close as I'll get. Watch out for the Skua's
*Skuas, no apostrophe.
I want a Mcmudor fire department shirt.

Hey.... The professional firefighter cheated. He had his turnouts sleeved into his boots. No fair.

XKCD took me here (but not directly)
ok 2 things. How do they keep the water from freezing? and second. Where can i get one of those big red fire trucks @ 2:15.
In the dead of winter isn't it 24 hours of dark and in the summer there is 24 hours of light
Yes
Why won’t Americans pronounce Antarctica correctly, it’s always “Anarctica”?
Antarctica has recently been developing its own accent, around most of the statioms they’ve been shorted to anarctica
Got offered a spot this year, but thanks to new zelands covid vax mandate i cannot go
How did you get offered a job?
