Enjoyed the Video. But some of the Shots were hard to read. As for the your remark about the Stations being all Volunteer.There are 3 stations that are All Paid, 3 all Volunteer and the rest combintion Stations. But I did enjoy the years that I put into the County as a Volunteer Firefighter. They were the best yrs. of my Life.
NEAT VID!!!! I sure miss the older rigs, when Bladensburg had an all Mack engine house (two C Cabs and a B Mack), Cottage City was all Seagrave (including the old Anniversary cab pumper and sedan rescue truck), Mt Rainier had its Maxims, Brentwood had its classic AmLaFrance, Kentland had its HUGE Snorkel, Riverdale had its Macks (CF ladder and C Cab pumper), West Lanham Hills had their old C Fords----to mention a few of the oldies. The age of the classic caddy ambulance is gone, as well.
From what I have read and heard, there are 2 stations out of the county that are FULLY career staffed, all the others have volunteers to fill trucks and only one 100% volunteer house.. and that is 9 - Bladensburg.
its not all volunteer because at the start of the video you showed some new County pieces.. im not trying to start anything im just pointing it out.. Good Video
This vid was great!! It showed the 3 things (to me) that make PGC what it is....The awesome ppl that work there, kick-ass rigs, and Powercall!!!! That was a perfect ending for this video!!!! :D
HOLY SH*T . that ambulance siren is the best ive ever heard. its got like 2-3 sirens. the mech is fucking awsome. nice vids. and nice pics. i would give a million bucks just to drive that thing
i like the rig at :37 thats nice u dnt see that much

As far as I know there are only 51 stations in PGC and they do have career guys. Not sure why you said all volunteer, because they are not.

in the first few seconds of the video where is says "all volunteer"......
Why are there over 700 career fire fighters in pgc that respond on around 60% of the total call volume for the county.
There are good volunteer stations but they cant take all the credit.
