Been following your channel for a while now. Good stuff. My grandfather was a Captain in the PFD when he retired in 1978. He started in 1946 after returning from the war. He's long since passed, but I remember his stories about major jobs like the Fretz building, Normandie Hotel, and many others. He was an instructor at the Fire College (behind Engine 39/Ladder 30) in the days before the Academy opened in the Northeast. I'll always have an interest in the PFD because of him. Anyway, glad I found your channel - your helmet cam vids are great - keep 'em coming and stay safe out there!

😮Amazing the amount of space there was to maneuver the ground ladder from the 2nd fl to the roof. You guys are the greatest.

Very bad ass- not my style, but great work.

Why aren't you using the aerial ladder?

Someone asked earlier but I'll repost it - I thought about it initially when I saw the condition of the porch roof, but our aerial is painfully slow to put in service. It's a difference of seconds vs minutes for raising ground ladders versus using our main aerial. So for 2 story dwellings with porch roofs we prefer to "step it up" with a extension 20' and 16' straight ladder. We can get up and over much faster

Nice work Jesse, was that E-45 first in with you guys?

No scba smart

Using the aerial in addition to ground ladders affords you multiple escape routes , in case the crap hits the fans . Just like wearing SCBAs regardless of where/ what your assignment is on the fire ground. Not using the aerial or SCBAs is reckless and a cowboy mentality that will get someone hurt.

We're aware of the benefits of using the main with ground ladders. When working a row home job, We're also aware that we can simply go to the next roof, if the fire dwelling roof is compromised. Fuck wearing a pack on the roof. Thanks for your concern though.

Loving the content you have been putting out Mr.Osada. I don't want to take away from your youtube page and was wondering if there's an email i could contact you at Sir?
