What did Saddle Brook do with theirs? That had to be the one of, if not the last Compac still in service.

Kill 'em all, let Allah sort 'em out. NEVER forget 9/11/01 WTC, Pentagon, Pa. Avenge the acts with NO mercy.

Thanks to ALL the Brothers who were there 9/11/01 and afterwards. Words can never say what appreciation we have for you all.

Went over to the FDNY Training Academy for a meeting with some of the bosses in Haz Mat yesterday. Some of our guys had never been there so I guess when one of the Captains saw them drooling he decided to give a tour. First unit is one of two new mobile decon units under going tests before they are placed in service.

Inside view of the showers. Unlike other units where the person has to walk thru from rinse, to soap, to final rinse, this system is programmed to have the person stand in one location and the shower changes the settings automatically.
