Here is a shot of my fire company, the Taunton Fire Company, back in October of 1976 when we were still known as the Lakes Vol. Fire Company. From left to right:

Engine 2414: 1973 Imperial 1000 GPM/1000 Gallons

Engine 2411: 1976 Ford C/Young 1000 GPM/500 Gallons

Engine 2412: 1954 GMC/Bean 750 GPM/High Pressure/750 gallons

Also in the photo is my late grandfather, Al Allen, who was Chief of the company from 1971-80 and a big inspiration to my love of the fire service.
