murf blue or green lights are illegal in maryland. Only chiefs are allowed to have a red light. I don't know of any members wrecking their cars on the way to the fire house. Two of the drivers who wreck engines were paid firefighters.

Green, is this the Mt. Airy Fire Dept. you are talking about? I have a cousin who lives in Mt. Airy who I believe works for or is a volunteer fire fighter there. I am not sure if he is still doing that though. Next time I see him, I will have to razz him a little about it.

Green, I don't want to bust anybody out on the internet with their full name I am sure you can understand. My cousin's first name is Michael. Ring any bells? Last name starts with a G.

Mike is big into the bass fishing tournament thing nowadays and he may not be doing the fire dept. work any longer. You may know one of his other two brothers. One runs a Pest Control Company and the other is a custom home builder.

We had a motto that was on our Baja racing equipment, tool boxes, and so forth. "You have to first finish before you can finish first!"
This is the type of attitude that will allow you and your equipment to come home safely. We finished every Baja 500 and Baja 1000 race that we ever started. We had some equipment damage and injuries, but nothing that ever put us out of the race.
That same thing applies to Emergency or Search and Rescue activities that I get involved with now. It does nobody any good to have a rescue vehicle stranded or broken in the boonies. It does not serve the victims of a fire well to have the rescue vehicle DNF (Did not finish.) All the excuses in the world do not matter.
