The crew was out this morning installing smoke detectors for residents in town.
Smoke detectors save lives.
Our pleasure. It’s an honor and privilege to serve. 8️⃣💪🏼 Smoke detectors Save Lives!👨🏻🚒🚒
Thank you for being proactive.
Drill night;
The crew of 6 members gathered for weekly drill last night and got right to work. RIT deployments was the main topic with the team also honing some skills with the handcuff knot and hitches with the Cleary Rescue strap. The team started inside with some show & tell and walk thoughts as well as the hands on with the knots and hitches. Then we geared up and worked on some deployment ops for RIT, following our pro-active RIT procedures. Breaking in some newer members on the finer points of RIT and saw ops/starting. Good learning for Everyone and a good time was had by all-! 8️⃣💪🏼🚒👨🏻🚒👊🏼RIT ON🤘🏼
RIT deployment drills + rescue straps + handcuff knots. Crawl-Walk-Run. RIT ON-!

Short clip of the Bell ceremony last night🇺🇸👨🏻🚒
September 11th:
The 8 crew marked the 18th anniversary with a full day of Remembrance.
The crew headed out to Rose Tree Park for the County services. Later that afternoon the crew gathered for crew night and a trip over to St. Madeline’s Church in Ridley Park for a First Responders/Remembrance mass. Pastor Flanagan blessed our Engine and Snozzle following the service. We had a nice chat with Father and Deputy Chief Brian Gilmore.
We ended the evening at the station remembering the fallen firefighters of 9/11 by having each of the 16 members attending saying the name and company of a fallen Brother & ringing the bell. After the bell ceremony the crew sat down for a big dinner made by DJ & Dani Brosnan. Of course deserts followed with some good conversations.🇺🇸🚒👨🏻🚒8️⃣💪🏼🇺🇸
Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind
Make my way through this darkness
I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone
How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone
On my shoulder a half mile of line
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
Left the house this morning
Bells ringing filled the air
I was wearin' the cross of my calling
On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
Li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li - li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li - li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li
There's spirits above and behind me
Faces gone black, eyes burnin' bright
May their precious blood bind me
Lord, as I stand before your fiery light
Li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li - li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li - li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li, li
I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me
May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me
Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line
Sky of blackness and sorrow (a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness (a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear (a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow (a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life
Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight
