Nearly three months after the transition of our new Fire Chief, here are some improvements that will take effect this month.



I've been given the project of removing our old numbering system off all our apparatus, replaced by the county's numbering system. (consisting of numbers; 25, 56, 62, 76, 77 & 96) photos to follow. In addition our Fire Chief will appoint 4 EMS Captains (1 per shift), below is a picture of our former Fire Chief's buggie recently repainted with graphics designated as Captain-56.



Captain-56 is a 2006 Ford Expedition.

Took advantage of another gorgeous, yet HOTT! morning before the afternoon thunderstorms rolled in to shoot Hialeah's newest piece, she is a 2010 E\-One Typhoon assigned to Station-7 (Hazardous Materials Team).

Thanks, Alex!



Yes indeed, she is very sharp... I especially like the "HAZ-MAT" on the bumper.

Evening guys! Today I took a small trip into Osceola County to photograph two rigs that I've fallen in love with, lol. Unfortunately because we're in the stormy season and certain stations have to be photographed at specific times, mother nature beat me to it... So, I wasn't able to shoot that second rig, but I plan to return next weekend. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
