Agreed! Almost looks like a painting!!
Can someone please tell me what is going on with the DCFD and this uniform battle I've heard about.
Monrovia1, Have you seen the posts on ffclosecalls or statter911?

I'm not from DC, so I will leave it to those members to comment if they feel like it...
As Ed Burke has stated over and over in other threads, this is not for politics or criticism discussion. This particular thread is for DCFD pics. The discussion of the DCFD members can be continued in the Fire Service Related forum. Thank you !
Does anybody have pics of the compartment layout on the seagraves or new pierces?
Today, I visited the DCFD!!! to try and photograph a few more of the new rigs. I managed to get a couple of stations. It is a shame, the pride that the Chief is stripping from each of the stations. Every station I visited said the same thing. For those that don't know, the Chief is having personalized items/decals on all apparatus removed. Stations with decals removed so far were E16/T3, E11/T6, E23, E32/T16, more are to be removed in the future. I visited Engine 11 today, amazing how plain the new engine is compared to what the old one posted above was. Below is Squad 3, which still retains the DCFD markings. I managed to also get Engine 15, both will have anything personal and DCFD related removed in the future.

Alrite DC guys. When I was down the other day taking pictures, I was on S. Capitol St. SE in the area of S. 1st St. SE. Just below E33/T8. There was a huge brick school building. To the rear of it were 3 fire trucks. There also was an entrance marked fire department entrance. Anybody know what this is? The (3) rigs there were Truck 388 - 1997 SGRV X-T6, Engine 69 - 1999
E\-One X-E1, 29, and Truck ? -
E\-One 110' Single Axle. I'm guessing X-Truck 15. All still retained their DCFD markings.
The trucks you saw are waiting to be disposed of.

Water Supply rig which if I believe was stationed at 16. Taken a while back.
10 Engine taken a year and a half ago. Hopefully they are actually stationed in a firehouse by now.
Moments later they head out on a (surprise, surprise) med-local.
