SOME OF YOUR GREAT COMMENTS
A Real Special One
Hi Britt,
Just wanted to share with you about my special boy. Our son
Chad is 8 years old and has Asperger's Syndrome, a high
functioning form of Autism. Since he was about 1 year old he
has been "into" fire trucks. He has only grown to love them and
all that goes with it as he gets older.
I don't know how I discovered your web site, but needless to say
it is the motivation I needed to get him to school lately. He
really hates going and the teachers are becoming more insistent
he not talk about firefighting. So each morning before he
leaves for school we come to your web site and are going thru
each state. He gets to pick a couple favorites which I print
for him and he takes them to school. We give them to his
teacher (he's in special ed.) and when he completes reading or
math he gets to spend a few minutes relaxing and looking at
them.
He is also into the old Emergency show and watches an episode or
2 daily. He also likes Adam 12. He and his Dad play each night
at bedtime the they are Roy & Johnny!
Well Britt, this is longer than I planned but I just wanted you
to know the joy you have brought our little boy. Thanks so
much.

Britt,
THE BEST COMPREHENSIVE FIRE WEB SITE I'VE SEEN AND I'VE SEEN A
LOT...
THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST SITE IN ALL ASPECTS TO A LOCAL FIRE
INTEREST

Britt,
I am currently doing a 1 year tour at Ali Al Salem Air Base in
Kuwait. You have a great website and I just wanted to wish all
my fellow brother and sister firefighters from the Cape & Islands a
Merry Christmas and a safe New Year. Keep up the great work
you all do! Thanks. SFC Gilbert 'Pete' Forend in Kuwait

Britt,
I have seen many, many websites and when I came across yours today I
just had to tell you this is by far the best FD site I have
accessed. You website should be the "standard" for all large FD
sites, it is so easy to navigate and it contains so much info. Keep
up the good work!!
Bob Smith, Horsham, PA
Britt,
Man, what can I say except
AWESOME website!! I could not believe the amount of information
you have collected. I am a firefighter/EMT here in Virginia. I
am also a dispatcher for the county, dispatching police/fire/ems.
I have always wanted to do a site for our fire/rescue
departments like you have done for your area.
Sincerely,
David Morgan
Britt,
Love the supersite. I've been
listening all day in Germany. Its
really fun. Yarmouth police responded to a residential alarm and
I could
here the actual alarm going off over the broadcast of the police
officer.
AWESOME. Keep up the great job on the website...
SrA John D.

Britt,
I think the word is WOW! You
have done a fantastic job assembling this site. I came in
looking to trade patches and stayed as long as I could
looking at just a few of the elements that you have put
together. I'll be back.
