Great job Frank! A nice change that for once the comments here are PRAISING public servants, as opposed to complaining how they're overpaid, lazy, we don't need them, etc.
Great work Frank and the rest of Harwich/Brewster FDs & PDs on this call!

hey anonymous. come right down to the fire dept and voice your concerns, or are you too scared to talk? like was said before, mr tough guy at the keyboard. The fire went fairly well, meaning no one was seriously hurt. If you got other issues step up and be a man otherwise keep your mouth shut!

I didnt know how much leeway I'd have on here (was thinking a lot worse :)). I bet mr/mrs "anonymous" doesnt want any help from firedepartments if his house goes up and/or his family's lives are in jeopardy

In response to: Kennedy to stay in hospital longer; Tuesday morning update
i dont know about a cover up -- maybe with the seizure risk, they sedated him and intubated him to secure the airway so it was a non-issue.
Now youre thinking, "He's one of 'them'" :)

From the pic on cctimes, it looks as if the Med flight medic is ventilating Kennedy, possibly he was sedated/intubated for the flight to boston. Merely speculation from the picture.

The fire in Orleans was not a 2nd Alarm, only a working fire. It was a fire in a bathroom.

Thong, you haven't once posted a comment which my first thought was either "What an Idiot," or "Shut the _ up." You constantly are bashing public servants so why do you care about the incidents shown here?? Idiot.

Thong, I'm sure the Cops/FFs in whatever town you live know ALL about you. You're probably one of the jerks at town meeting that can't stand public servants. Don't shoot down the people that have the 'youknowwhats' to deal with what you're scared of....that's right, I'm even defending "Scrod" Ambulance, aka the Nursing home 'Bone.' Just shut your mouth alredy!

In response to: Paddelboat capsizes in Dennis; Mashpee head-on crash; Centerville break; Hyannis fires, Harwich crash
"Tourons" has been a problem ever since the days of our forefathers- when the native Wampanoags had to deal with tourists, aka Pilgrims. I'm sure Squanto couldnt stand those buckle-shoe'd jerks from Europe--they think they own the place! Bumper Sticker from 1600: "I'm not on your Religious Pilgrimage."

Sorry I don't mean tourists, I mean people from Connecticut, NY, NJ, etc. who drive slow/rude on the Cape and assume everyone who lives here year round is on their vacation.

In response to: Driver Medflighted from Yarmouth crash today; Harwich multiple rollover
In response to: Driver Medflighted from Yarmouth crash today; Harwich multiple rollover
Most of the time Medflight is called not only for injuries, but potential for injuries. Medflight is RARELY, if ever(I can only speak for my dept) used for a non-life threatening emergency. I don't know about you, but if one of my family members were in a serious accident, I would want them to have the best possible care, if the mechanism of injury is significant-- and that means going up town on a whirly-bird. Leave it to the people whose salary you pay to make those decisions. (P.S. I think Capt. Farrenkopf is a Harwich Capt.)
