      Your uncle was mentioned by name in a video about that exact fire that's crazy apparently the alarm on his uniform that sounds off after a fire fighter is on the ground for too long was the first to go off and it let everyone know something was wrong inside the building

    Hey Grandpa, I am a Firefighter in my town, Brewerton Station 1. I wanted to say thank you on behalf of myself and my fellow brothers on duty for the recognition you gave to what we do. This is reassuring to us to know that we are still recognized for what we do. We will keep up the fight, the fight of fire, and the protection of life and property because we care. I am also in EMS so I like your stories about "assisting EMS". Great videos grandpa, THANKS AGAIN!

    Well said AGP! We don't respect our first responders enough anymore. I don't know if it's the sign of the times or a different generation? Remember when the shit hits the fan, and that day is sadly coming. These guys are going to be our first responders, They'll be the first ones to risk their lives, and to save other people's lives before their own! These people will be the only help we get till more help comes! God bless our First responders! And thank you!

    Just want to tell you Angry Grandpa how much I appreciated that tour and look into your life as a firefighter. The museum is something I would have gone to myself if I was able, thank you. Up here in Maine we have road blocks occasionally and the firemen hold out boots and everyone gives what they can 25 cents or how ever many dollars they wish to get through. It helps our firemen buy equipment to save lives and keep them safe. Again thank you for this video and thank you for your service.

    A few years back the firefighters here in the UK went on strike and a lot of people said they were nothing but greedy, lazy good for nothings. I argued against those people. This video illustrates why I and others who argued the firefighters case, were 100% correct. We need to value these brave men and women.

    Thanks to our local firemen.. My house was saved. Fire ( meth explosion) in the house 10 feet from mine. so glad that mess is cleaned up. Aside from some broken windows the firefighters saved what would have otherwise been totally destroyed.. THANK YOU! ( see my tribute video.. a tribute to firefighters for pics of the fire).

      fire happened last yr ( 2014) november 14th at 4:50 pm central time. The house next door was more or less gone so they just housed mine down to keep it from burning up too. Fire next door relit several times due to flammable chemicles.

    @atheist psyconaut My husband just got home from shift. He read your comments and wants to clear one thing up- when the young people come on the department for the "t-shirt", it falls on the senior guys to teach them what the fire service really is. They make sure the probies know what the job is really about and train and know this job has life ending risks.
