I was a volunteer fireman for 20 yrs. with one of the local depts. In that period I witnessed enough ignorance to load Capt.Philips container ship. The real thorn was to watch the damage inflicted by the F.D. the fires I attended didn`t cause. I witnessed holes sawed in roofs that had gable windows. I saw axes used to smash car windows at accidents in which the automobiles had little or no damage. I could go on and on. Anytime the company got a new toy they couldn`t wait to wreak havoc on people already in a crisis situation by destroying what they could in the name of fire-fighting. They tout their training as somekind of shield when they get dressed down for their actions and I was even asked to lie about the real circumstances I witnessed while they were acting SO childish. In closing, I got my 20 yr. pin and bid them farewell and haven`t stepped into the firehouse since. They don`t miss me nor I them for obvious reasons. I was ashamed to admit to the general public I was ever a member.What I see in this picture doesn`t surprize me a bit. When you see the Salisbury Fire Dept. riding in a $400,000.00 fire truck to get their lunch in Delmar, Stop one of them and ask him to give you a play by play on how this demonstrates his and Rick Hoppes PROFESSIONAL training!

It took Rick Hoppes more than a life time to get a degree and a fake one at that to claim he was qualified to be a fire chief. An online fake degree and he waited forever. How embarrassing for the fat lazy moron. I bet his kids are proud of him.
LOL

Yes, Rick Hoppes thinks he is the Department Brain with his use of big words he can't even define.
