Those are some good posed Montco photos, phil, when were you in the great state of Montgomery? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Lol' /> You may be interested to know that the above aerial is now at Madison VFC, in Dorchester County,MD.

In September of 91, the Montgomery Co. Vol. Firefighters held a "convention" at the Carver Center (the public school HQ) in Rockville, MD. The large parking lot became the meeting place for a modest turn-out of Montco rigs of that era.

This was before I was mentored by other photographers more skilled than I, my method back then was to rush to various FD events and bang away with my POS Canon "sure shot", often with imperfect results. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shrug.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Shrug' />
