That is an old Eastman monitor on this rig's roof. This may be the only one that Chesterfield ever had. They bought it from surplus from Richmond. We used this type of monitor along with the Akron's before we switched to the Stang monitor. This ride always looked great.[/quote]
Thanks for the update John. Unit 103 was my ride when I was running with #10 from '83 to '88. Although the truck was donated to ODHFS for a short period of time back in 2000, it was returned to Wagstaff Circle VFD in 2006 at their request. The current members are working on restoration and rehab. of the unit and it is currently parked back at Station 10.
BTW, I saw Jack M. in DC this week at the CFSI dinner.
