Great photos Dennis: Paul and I went down to LaCrosse and shot all of the FEMA grant truks in the region. More Heavy-Technical Haz Mat Rescues than you will be able to stand. We also shot several every day apparatus. I am getting the info together and will post them soon.

Then there was this little classic! Engine 1 is a 1968 Ford/General with a 500 pump and 1000 tank. The truck was in awesome shape for being almost 40 years old!

Sometimes you find the darndest things out on the middle of nowhere like this X-FDNY Seagrave ladder truck lettered for Ladder 17. It is now privately owned. Serial# P-75418. This was at the McDavitt openhouse.

Also found this at the openhouse. X-Pipestone, MN 1971 WLF Ambassador. Serial# 80-517. This is a poor shot but it was the best I could do at the time. It is now privately owned by an individual up in the Iron Range. The truck is in fantastic shape!
