Do you happen to have any other photos of that rig serving in VA ? Hard to make out the actual department name on the door, but it looks like C C D F Vol. Fire Department ? Do you know the name of the department it served ? Any help greatly appreciated. Here are some photos when it served Monsey ! All photos are from my personal collection.

[/quote] Rich, You asked the question some time ago but I didn't see an answer. I remember seeing an article in one of the fire magazines (would have been Fire Engineering or Firemen back then)describing the Mattydale load when it was a new thing. Believe it was on an ALF, possibly a 700, and I'm sure it was proir to 1972. I will reluctantly acknowledge that I saw the article when it came out.

But it looks nothing like what Sanford was producing at the time. A local department had one that looked like this one and, if I remember correctly, it was a Maxim that also served in the military. Could this be a Maxim, too?

Why? Probably because Walton is the home of the only cottage cheese processing plant operated by Breakstone, a leading distributor of that dairy product for well over a century. |
