Firepics-THE place for fire photographers

DCFD Tower-3 at the DCFD Fire Training Academy during the IFBA National Conference. Correction to the previous post, it is E-4, not E-24. E-24 will come later!

New DCFD Seal replacing the old one. All new apparatus are sporting them and some older units have gotten their hands on them too!

DCFD E-24 today at the DCFD Training Center during the IFBA National Confernce. Sorry no further info.

DC Engine 4 and 24 are 2006 Seagrave 1250/500



Tower 3 is a 2003 Seagrave/Aerialscope 95'

That is actually the old seal that DCFD used years back.

You are almost correct. It is based on the Old seal but there is a Big Difference.<img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/22_yikes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I guess when they had to put the EMS deal on the "patch/seal" it was much more appropriate to elimiate the hydrant based on the <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='<_<' /> water supply maladies than the hook and ladder.



For all that attented the LFBA convention it was a really great show. Sorry for all you who chose not to join us.
