IRAQI FIREFIGHTERS VISIT ECHO FIRE!

We had the pleasure of meeting some Iraqi Firefighters from the City of Ad Diwaniyah. They were escorted on base by the Military and brought by the Station to meet our guys. I was, unfortunatly, on night dispatch at the time and missed the whole thing. Anyway, the Iraqis received some donated equipment and some Echo Fire T-shirts. They hung around for a while checking out our equipment.......that sounds dirty! LOL!

Trying on some gear that was on the base. Not sure who's it was and why it was there...
Chief did a meet & greet.
Handed out some Echo Fire T-shirts.
Justin donned his bunker gear for the visitors.
Showed them around the apparatus.

This is the Iraqi Fire Engine, not bad but stripped bare to the bone, not much in the way of equipment. No hose in the cross-lays and apparently not much in the compartments.
Hanging around.
