EVD Rich Garrison from Truck 10 has been serving our nation overseas. He was injured by a road side bomb a short time ago. His injuries will require surgery state side. Despite this, he demanded he not return until the rest of his unit did. Please keep Rich, his family and all of our Troops in your prayers.
(Rich had surgery on Tuesday and did well. Another operation, on his foot, coming Thursday)

The former quarters of Engine Co. 37 is where Baltimore City Firefighter's Local 734 calls home. Engine Co. 37 was opened in 1910 and remained so until budget cuts in 1988 caused Engine Co. 37 to be disbanded and the station closed. Had it remained open today it would be the first due company to Oriole Park at Camden Yards as well as M&T Bank Stadium. The union acquired the building from the city and set forth to doing a major renovation of the old engine house. The second floor was turned into office space for the executive board as well as a large meeting room. The first floor apparatus bay was turned into a meeting/banquet hall which is backed up by the bar with a kitchen and bathrooms occupying the rear of the first floor. As well as being the union hall the building also doubles as a great fund raising location during Ravens home games where a tailgate party is hosted complete with pit beef and drinks. All proceeds from these tailgates benefit the Baltimore City Firefighter's Widows and Orphans Fund which provides money to families of firefighters killed in the line of duty.
