Portsmouth Fire Department Ambulances

[John Royark JR]

I've yet to see a Nash Metropolitan ambulance or hearse....

I have a rat rod buddy that has been thinking about making a hearse out of his! I am going to supply table hardware and landau bars for the project.

Best I could come up with is a 1930's Nash ambulance.

...from Maryland, thank you!

Ooh, new smileys!

This is true Chris, our town however no longer lets the Volunteers work as active Firefighter/Medics. Not sure why or when, I have worked there for 14 years and it has always been that way. This leaves us horribly understaffed and unprepared for major/multiple incidents. More pics are on the way.

Same here we have Volunteer EMTs but only the Career Firefighter/medics have medical command and can provide ALS care. its funny to me also...

 

[Paul Steinberg]

It isn't funny, it is very sad. My best guess is it is a matter of the Union Contract restrictions.
