Syracuse, New York

On Saturday, 4 members of Firepics (and 1 son) joined together and photographed the Syracuse Fire Department.

 

The hospitality shown was absolutely tremendous, with every member at each station coming to the apparatus floor.  We had prearranged the tour with official permission of the on duty deputy chief.  We had every rig in the stations pulled out, and when possible, turned into the sun, with no issues whatsoever.

 

The sun was out full force for the morning, and by lunch time the clouds rolled in, however they cleared out again mid afternoon.

 

Many thanks to the on duty shift for their assistance.
