E. Sjostrom Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 *Having gone through M7's stock and restocking what's needed after roll call I head outside of the bay to have a cigarette. Pulling out a Winston from my pack as I step out on the freshly paved asphalt I put the cig between my lips and light it up. As I take a drag I look out at my surroundings. There's not much; just trees and fields. Of the buildings I can see there's not one that looks like it's over 2 stories tall. As I exhale smoke I can only think to myself that maybe I'll get to sleep throughout most of this shift.* Quote EMT Erika Sjostrom Medic 1 Shiloh County Fire Department EMS Badge 1315 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clark Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 *i walk into the Bay Area and grab my gear off the Engine and put it on the rescue* 'good lord this thing is old hopefully it actually starts' *i climb in the back and test my air bottle outta my jumpseat* 'good at least the SCBA tanks work.. well i guess its time to check out the rest of the station' *i put my Air bottle back in the seat and start walking around the rest of the station* Quote Firefighter Kathrine Clark Engine 1 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Stone Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 *I walk out to the bay, looking over the truck. It felt a little nostalgic, throwing me back to when I was a kid, climbing around on the firetrucks in the volunteer station at home. That truck had been replaced years ago, though, at that department. I affectionately pat the nose of the truck.* 'You might be old, but I bet you'll still do us just fine for this shift.' *I start looking it over, making sure everything on the truck checked out.* Quote Acting Platoon Chief Marcus Stone Unit 22 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 1909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Wilson Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) *I walk out to the bay, smiling at the Mack. I had worked on an engine just like it at Engine 14 when I was hired. We had put in a ton of work on that engine - it was new then, and fires were a lot more common back then. That Mack had been a warhorse. I had ridden backwards and wheeled it all over Delmore. And now, nearly thirty years later, here I was working on one again. It looked to be in decent shape, actually. Probably the pride of this fleet. Mack made a good truck back in the day, even though they didn't make fire apparatus anymore. I open the bay door and hop into the truck, cranking it up so I can pull it onto the apron and give it some TLC.* Edited May 6, 2020 by estone Quote Firefighter Dave Wilson Ladder 1 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.

L. Cook Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 *Heading out to the bay I see that the engine was brought outside. That's fine. Wanted to go through my gear to make sure I have everything before getting it on the truck. So as I squat down near where the engine used to be I open up a large bag and begin going through the brand new gear the department provided me with.* Quote Firefighter Landon Cook Engine 1 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
