That is actually the old seal that DCFD used years back.

You are almost correct. It is based on the Old seal but there is a Big Difference.<img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/22_yikes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I guess when they had to put the EMS deal on the "patch/seal" it was much more appropriate to elimiate the hydrant based on the <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='<_<' /> water supply maladies than the hook and ladder.
For all that attented the LFBA convention it was a really great show. Sorry for all you who chose not to join us.
