As stated every Brigade takes pics at sceens.after all if its stopped.then what would Promotions Unit Photo Gallery have to post :-D

Also stated..what is filmed is the main question...I for one wouldnt like to see closeups of MVAs..as other countrys view on TV News reports.

Common sence is the call of the day..use it for good or abuse it, its your call.

It could effect them......but on a big fire.....every...firefighter there is 2 more hands to be used..

I just wish those misplaced firefighters.who have moved home for many reasons.like work etc.that cant join local CFS Stations due to closed books...could be utilised.....as they already are experienced ppl
