[quote name='firstduephotos' post='57142' date='Dec 8 2006, 10:06 ']I see what appears to be some radiant heat damage on the driver's side of this piece. Anyone have the story behind the story? One of the mill/factory fires up that way perhaps??[/quote]

' /> Check out the Sept. 1984 issue of Firehouse - on pg. 51 is a photo story on the huge fire at the Henry Leather co. in Peabody, which occurred on 5/10/84. The lead photo shows this truck "taking the heat" at this blaze and the story states the hose supplying the ladder pipe burned away, and all the FFs with the truck received burns. That would account for the damage if the photo was taken after that date.
