The words no Firefighter wants to hear, "MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY" was transmitted last week at a house fire in Roanoke County (Va). "MAYDAY" is the term Firefighters use when their life or safety is in jeopardy and they are unable to remove themselves from the situation.

I wonder what the headlines what have said if this Firefighter had been injured or killed? Who would have been held liable? Think about that for a moment.

When I watched the video, I could believe what I was watching. Well, I could believe it but maybe I didn’t understand it is a better way to put it. Now I don’t typically “Monday morning quarterback” or “keyboard command” fires but I want, and feel like I have to say something on this one.

The funeral is scheduled for 11am (EST). Live coverage below …. RFB (Remember Fallen Brothers)! Previous coverage / details HERE Captain Wines

When I talk about "Take", Im talking about knowledge, experience, networking, friendships, ideas etc. What was your "take" from FDIC? I hope everyone who attends comes away with SOMETHING... if you didn't / don't, it's your own fault. I'm curious as to what it was for you (the "take").

Can you imagine searching for victims in all this destruction while not even knowing that your own family is safe? Responding to a street that doesn't even exist any more?

Take Randy's new Department for example.... in my opinion ... just like others all across the Country (paid and volunteer); single member staffing and POV response is a gamble. IT'S A GAMBLE WITH FIREFIGHTER'S LIVES!

I'm not a "news" or video site and typically don't share a lot of these. I am however a FDNY buff of sorts and a huge fan of Rescue 2 out of Brooklyn. With that said, here is some raw footage of a 3rd alarm fire from 12/12/14 in Brooklyn .
