Deputy Chief Darrin Scott is the 2nd highest ranking fire officer in the department and he is standing very close to the fire in absolutely no fire gear or no protective clothing.
What he is doing is a direct violation of the SFD SOP's and many people have been written up, lost wages and terminated for doing what he is doing.
He is supposed to set the standard for every man and woman on the fire ground. Typical violation where the rules don't apply to everyone. Just the ones they want to get rid of.

Does seem all that close.
Simply put, stupid is as stupid does.
At least he is there doing whatever needs to be done. Man has to do what a man has to do. He is serving his community. Enough said.
Look at the right hand side of the picture, someone else without gear on, as long as they don't get too close or try to go in, they are ok
More impotently, who is the guy at far right next to bldg.?
You expect anything different?
Waah! One photo of a man WORKING during his job instead of standing back talking while leaning on a truck. How about "look at this dedicated man working for a living and providing us a service" not to mention that may one day could be the active chief who saves your complaining bdhind....
It's 6:02 fix your clock unless it's how you pin something to stay on top.
seems like he wants a little smoke inhalation and turn it into a disability claim. hmmmmm?

Exactly what should happen to him
I knew Darrin when his Sh*t stunk like everyone else and know that he has been getting Rotor-Rooter'd for 20 years and when he began his kissing every A#S that is politically beneficial and being serviced as far back as good ole Norm Conway and leading up to his ultimate regular Jim Boy Ireton and his newest butt buddy with that cute fuzzy hair cut and his title is Mayor which almost is as funny as Darrin being Chief when fat boy has the big one! To you men in the fire service in Salisbury or in the county please don't critique him for unsafe behavior he commits that only involves himself and we may all get a real FD when Darrin spontaneously combust!
Haha..That close are you serious? He's not even that close and in no danger. He is doing a good job of doing an overview of the situation. Wow...Get something else to bitch about.
6:03 You catch on fast like a three toe sloth!
Armchair quarterback much? Looks like he's a safe distance away to me, although not as far as you are safely behind your keyboard
Well chief Joe. He is the incident commander and not in the fire. If you had any knowledge of firefighting you might understand that.
Flat out irresponsible. What is something in that shop had exploded..paint cans, gas cans, propane tanks. His radio works farther than that....or cant these paid professionals do the job without him being up their skirt? Maybe he's never had gear to know its required?
He's also standing in the middle of fire hose. If anyone of the firemen were to take off - and try to go to fight another area of the fire - he could end up injured. What is he thinking? Surely - this man doesn't possess the skills required to assess a LIVE condition.
This is what happens when someone is only focused on assuming command, and doesn't take the extra 2 minutes to put on his gear. Poor example, as well as poor practice.
There are NFPA standards that require anyone on the fire scene to be in full turn out gear.
You remember the same NFPA standards that Rick Hoppes was spouting off about the volunteers not meeting their percentages and only responding 50% of the time.
Looks like Rick Hoppes and Darrin Scott pick and choose which NFPA Standards they want to comply with.

Does or does not? He is too close to the burning structure without full turn out gear on.
Look at all of those paid firemen right up against that building without breathing air from their bottles. How do they know what is burning in that building.
When they all get respiratory problems or cancer from breathing those toxic fumes they are going to want us to pay their medical bills and cry for them.

You are absolutely wrong there buddy. The Salisbury Fire Department has their own SOP's they adopted about the fire ground. He is text book WRONG. He is also wrong for allowing that guy in the far right to be up close in the hazard zone.
I guess Darrin is standing in the "Cold Zone" or the "Safe Zone." NOT!! He is right in the middle of the HOT Zone!

Yes! He is wearing that white shirt as a chief officer. They set the examples for all the firefighters. Can you imagine if all of them were standing their with no turn out gear on. Big mistake on Darrin's part. He should be reprimanded. And so should the guy to the right wearing the dark blue.

That is exactly right. If one of those hose connections came lose and struck him in the head or in the chest he would be a dead man.
BC he is Clueless redneck.
Who really cares, he showed up at the scene doing whatever he's suppose too. Get over it....
If he was injured or killed then MOSH and OSHA would be all over that fire department. When they are done with their investigation Hoppes and Tull would be resigning because of their failures.

For those of you sitting back and bashing two individuals for doing a job to protect someone's property is a shame, 1 the Deptuy Chief is about 20 yards from this structure and is assessing the conditions of the fire to make sure his interior crew is making a good knock on the fire as well as making sure exterior crews are completing their task, and for the comment about the deputy cheif tripping over the hose is ridiculous, you can clearly see he is in mid stride in this picture moving away from the hose, and 2 the guy with the ladder sets this ladder and immediately leaves the area, I've never seen a city bash it's fire department more than the city of Salisbury, these guys no matter what is said about them continues to serve this community and surroundings ares with the up most pride. The people on here that dispise the Salisbury Fire Department get a life and join as a volunteer and make a difference and understand why the SFD does what it does

God! I was thinking the same thing. Most paid fireman get 2 sets of gear, 1 for the station and one for your car. To ride up on the scene and not put on your turn out gear is pure lazy. LAZY!
I wonder how long it takes before the SFD pulls that picture from their website. Well it's fingerprints are on this site forever. Thank you Joe.
A millisecond in time that none of you complaining about have no idea what was about to happen next, what happens next is Chief Scott commands a crew to mask up and assist with overhaul and removes him self from the scene, next what happens is that guy to the far right sets his ladder and leaves, you know maybe if you guys took the time to ask question about a situation or a picture about a fire scene you wouldn't just jump to conclusions like you do about everything else, Take the time to get the facts and understand what is going on
I would differ the question of turnout gear to Chief Harold Fosque. Surely he knows when and where it should be worn. Interior, exterior, hunting etc.
Very good topic, seems to have hit a nerve with all bases! Important topic - indeed!
7:40, Seems you're the only one that doesn't care,the rest of us really do care about all the FF's safety.
The whole point is DC Scott is NOT doing what he's suppose too! And bare headed also,no helmet,hard hat, no nothing.
I have been riding fire trucks for 37 years. I've been in 3 fire departments, one very busy DC Metro combination fire dept, one moderately busy, started out volunteer then went to combination fire department, last a very rual volunteer fire department. I clam to be no expert but what I can see here is nothing wrong. I said it in another post 90% off you people have no idea what you're talking about, and if you were to watch how fire scenes are controlled in very large cities your heads would explode. Instead of always criticizing, because we know you have nothing else better to do, why don't you go to your local volunteer fire department and join in whatever capacity that you can do
You hose jockeys are a sensitive lot.
8:36 I have similar experience as well as a Master's degree in safety management. I agree with your assessment. The only issue I see where he is standing in relation to the charged lines. That being said, you can't tell if he was walking over them or standing there.
2 sets of gear? That's a pipe dream with our budget....
8:04 There is no way that the guy with the ladder should be setting a ladder without gear on. End of discussion on this point.
Talking about over reaction!
Leave a name boy!!! You can throw others out there but never step it up and say yours with all your experience!!

Oh Big Bad Brady Scott. The boy that was hired illegally by his dumb father against The Employee Handbook which is the law. And which comment are you referring to??
This is definitely a good find Joe. This should definitely be pinned at the top for a good day. I am sure if you keep all the recent SFD comments at the top for a good day your comments will skyrocket. It would go up almost as much as the fire trucks self dispatching themselves on calls they are not supposed to be responding to. In real fire departments with a real EOC dispatching center they wouldn't get away with their self dispatching.

Here are some ideas!
What should happen to Darrin Scott for a serious violation of an SOP:
1) Reprimanded
2) Fired
3) Demoted
4) Fired
5) Lost Wages
6) Fired
7) Make him shave that silly mustache
8) Fired
9) Fired
10:18 Sounds like you don't get out much since the only FD you can name are in MD/DC. Some of us have experience from the birthplace of volunteer firefighting and have certs in several states. In 1736 Benjamin Franklin founded the first American volunteer fire company in Philadelphia. You local wannabes are an embarrassment, regardless of whether paid or volunteer, but the volunteers have the benefit of being altruistic and serving their community to the best of their ability.
I worked with Darrin Scott in Real Estate and he was about as bright as a burnt out light bulb. It took him over 5 attempts to finally pass the licensing exam to be able to sell real estate in the state of Maryland. What a DUMMY!
He was ultimately let go because he wasn't doing much except for standing around which is exactly like he is doing in this picture. What a waste and we are all glad that he is no longer at our office. We all laughed at his stupidity. He thought we were laughing with him, but we were definitely laughing at him. Poor Dummy.

Oh really?? LMAO. Good try Bozo, but the bottom line is the fact that he shouldn't have been in the middle of the fire ground or that close to the burn building. His rank doesn't mean Diddly and as a matter of fact, it will really hurt him if an investigation is going to be directly at Darrin Scott. No wonder his Old Lady left him.
I'm looking at this picture and thinking about what should be going on. Darrin Scott is wearing a white shirt because he is a fire officer. He is a chief officer and although he was barking orders, he was not in command.
Where Darrin Scott is standing is NOT the Command Post. He should have been at the Command Post, which I know there really wasn't one, the Incident Commander should be reprimanded for that.
Mike Donaway is also a high paid chief officer. He is the Incident Commander and it was his job to reel Dummy Darrin in so Donaway screw up for losing his span of control and should be reprimanded, but he won't be because Mikey is in that little click.

Darrin and Hoppes are quick to write someone up for doing this same infraction. Darrin needs to be written up by the incident commander and if Donaway doesn't write him up, then Donaway needs to be written up as well for not doing his job. There rules and "guidelines" in the Salisbury Fire Department are only apply to volunteers who they are targeting. I also know a few times the "Leadership" Hoppes, targeted some career members for doing less. Fire them all please.

Good try Bozo! It isn't his job to do an "Overview" he isn't the incident commander. As a matter of fact he violated the chain of command several times.
He is not in danger? There is obviously a lot of smoke pouring out of that garage. A quick wind shift which was happening will put him in the middle of the path of the fumes. He has no SCBA on and that close he should have.
He is not in danger? He is standing in the middle of a charged hose line. At those pressures the hoseline could burst causing serious injuries. The couplings could come lose causing that section of hose to whip around without control and strike your fearless leader. Then what have you got to say. This is a very dangerous place to stand.
Very dumb move and Dep. Chief Scott needs to be demoted and disciplined with time off and no pay.
This is the result of a 42 page report done after a firefighter was recently killed by a failed hoseline or appliance. So tell me again you dumb morons that say Darrin Scott is completely safe. Nice try, but your distractions don't work here.

Read this if you think standing in the middle of a charged fire hoseline without protective gear on.
Fire hoses - Daytona Fire and Safety Equipment, Inc.
Fire Hoses
A fire hose is a high-pressure hose that carries water or other fire retardant (such as foam) to a fire to extinguish it.
Outdoors, it attaches either to a fire engine or a fire hydrant. Indoors, it can permanently attach to a building's standpipe or plumbing system.
The usual working pressure of a firehose can vary between 8 and 20 bar (800 and 2,000 kPa; 116 and 290 psi) while its bursting pressure can be up to 83 bar (8,300 kPa; 1,204 psi).
When a hose fails, the explosive force can send housings and couplings blasting through the air at speeds that can be fatal to anyone hit by the debris.
Bob Culver. Jake Day. Are you reading this anything but professional vitriol? This is the state of a community institution under your leadership. Shame on you. Drain this swamp. Start over. These children are dangerous Get some professional men. Or women
Soooo then I suppose that nobody should be within reach of the full length if the hose, or within reach of where a coupling could land due to the extreme pressurization. How is the fire going to be put out, BOZO. Who the hell says bozo anymore besides crotchety old men?
You mean like how you signed your name? Shut up you sissified punk
No one asked you about your "experience". You can have 25 college degrees and that doesn't mean squat if you have no "common sense". Anyone can get a "college degree" if you spend enough money. Look no further than the college "athletes" who can't even speak properly in interviews each and every weekend. They have degrees. However, they have no common sense. You can't teach "common sense".
I can't think of a Dumber, more Dangerous person than Darrin Scott, Deputy Chief of Operations! WTF! I guess this PROVES Rick Hoppes is even DUMBER!!
At least John Tull did have some common sense!

It's not that anyone on here despises the Salisbury Fire Department. We have some great volunteers. We despise the 2 rule system. We despise the Fire Chief who shouldn't have been appointed, but was appointed anyway. We despise the paid firemen breeding the culture of paid fireman hating volunteers because of job security.
Second, the deputy chief is not making an overview to make sure the scene is close. I was there and I am not stupid.
Third, it's not the guy with out gear's job to set the ladder and leave. The guys with gear have that job. I see absolutely no one with tools in their hands. I firefighter already dressed down grabs the ladder with another firefighter and sets the ladder. Quit making excuses you dumb moron.
Gosh, the Salisbury Fire Department should sell tickets to their 3 Ring Circus. What a freaking JOKE!!
Well...which is it? Was he in command or not? Earlier comments justify his position by claiming he was the "incident commander". You guys can't even get you fake justification lies straight.
Keep this at the top please.

There is a difference between experience and education. Maybe your lack of education is why you confused the two. Some of us have experience and education. That is what separates me from you. I bet you want your doctor, dentist and lawyer to have an education beyond high school. Now, get your butt to work and make someone smarter than you some money.
The majority of the people making negative comments must have been Hillary voters. Probably saying the same thing about President Trump. Can't stand authority and jealous of the position. Just for curiosity, I asked a Fireman at BWI to give me his thoughts on this. Without being there and not knowing the true nature of the fire he could only say Chief Scott was not in the line of the fire. What that means I have no clue but that being said I'm not a Fireman nor confess to be like the experts commenting here.
What kind of sissy name is Brady? Brady, Blare and Todd....sissy punk names.
Exactly!!! Barnum and Bailey went out of business. Now I know why. They couldn't compete with the circus that IS the Salisbury Fire Department.
Well.,,if you "don't know" and are asking someone who wasn't there, why are you even commenting? Your entire comment says that you have no idea what you are talking about. So, why comment and involve yourself with something you admittedly know nothing about? I know..,just like everyone else...,look at me...look at me..,,I can comment too!!!!
How close is he actually standing? A picture is deceiving but guess no one on here has figured that out.
If this was a video instead of a picture you would know exactly what 7:22 was talking about.
Looks like he is also breaking a first learned rule of not stepping over the hose. Someone should have pulled it and knocked him down :)
Anon 8 a.m. There are 91 comments on here so who are you referring to. Also how many of the commentators here were actually at the scene of the fire. Why are you commenting?
no firegear, and he is standing in the middle of the hoses. If those hoses were to be pulled closer to the fire, he could possibly be dragged. not very aware of his surroundings, is he?
9;12, they were responding to 7:34
Who knows what he's thinking....? Hes been through alot with his marriage ending and all.....let him be. Broken hearts can lead to bad decisions.
10:16, What a Liberal BS excuse. Poor guy, NOT. Who left Whom? Who remained in the house? There's a damn good reason ONE of the two gave up everything and walked out! Feel sorry for this a-hole, I think not. Yeah, my name, like a man, is on my comment and this guy knows exactly what I'm talking about. He's a RISK and needs to be held accountable. However, Boy Day isn't man enough or experienced enough to do the right thing, hence why I call him a BOY.
Major house fire in Bethany Beach this AM -- how about examining how they (unsuccessfully) fought that one!
just a bunch of trailer trash punks on here complaining and bitching as usual the man is doing his job while most of you are door greeters at wal mart your so jealous and hateful
Typical uneducated farmin....it's "you're so jealous" not "your so jealous". You're an embarrassment with your pitiful grammar.
If they had your education, they would have been lawyers, does that answer your question? People with half a brain leave a building on fire, not enter it.
Paid firemen in Salisbury do not get 2 sets of gear, nor do the volunteers.

Darrin should be fired for hiring his own son and his grandson's father. The husband of his daughter. Darrin made sure his kids are set for life with that hiring deal. What Darrin and Rick Hoppes did with hiring their own relatives is in violation of the employee handbook. They both need to be fired for that.
I have seen worse. Bunny Adams at a scene...disappears and is found drugged out laying in the back of the ambulance ! And he was able to keep his job? And actually retired and is able to collect that check. Wth?

The fact that you rode in fire trucks for 37 years makes my head explode!! First off they are fire engines, not fire trucks. A real firefighter wouldn't brag about riding in fire trucks when in fact they are fire engines.

"I've been in 3 fire departments, one very busy DC Metro combination fire dept, one moderately busy, started out volunteer then went to combination fire department, last a very rual volunteer fire department." WTF kind of sentence is that? Your grammar is horrible and you are an embarrassment to the fire service. Are we supposed to be impressed that you've been in 3 fire departments?

Well...which is it? Was he in command or not? Earlier comments justify his position by claiming he was the "incident commander". You guys can't even get you fake justification lies straight.
March 14, 2017 at 6:57 AM
Isn't that the truth. Mike Donaway was the Incident Commander even though Darrin Scott was breaking the chain of command and barking orders. When there is a fire incident and command has been established, no one talks to central or tells others what to do except the incident commander. Unless you are Darrin Scott of course.
You jolly vollies never cease to amaze me with your stupidity. You're already about to lose your ridiculous fight to try and separate, now you just continue to banter back and forth with completely false and absurd comments. How did the column of smoke look from your couches?
Has anyone seen John Tull lately? How is his new job going? That's got to be tough being in charge of a only a few office girls these days.

I have seen worse. Bunny Adams at a scene...disappears and is found drugged out laying in the back of the ambulance ! And he was able to keep his job? And actually retired and is able to collect that check. Wth?
March 14, 2017 at 2:11 PM
That would be Bunky Adams. Went from an Acting Assistant Chief to a Lieutenant in charge of maintenance. He would have been fired if Bill Higgins didn't suck up to Jim Ireton for him.

There is a difference between experience and education. Maybe your lack of education is why you confused the two. Some of us have experience and education. That is what separates me from you. I bet you want your doctor, dentist and lawyer to have an education beyond high school. Now, get your butt to work and make someone smarter than you some money.
March 14, 2017 at 7:29 AM
Speaking of education, do you really think getting a fake degree from a fake school like Columbia Southern University is an education? NOT!!
Well with all the training, knowledge and experience my three-line MFRI transcript over 20 years in the FD represents, you know I'm an expert in armchair quarterback tactics!
If I can't actually do it, I'm supposed to just talk crap about those that can, right?
And we didn't see it from the trailer, the picture window faces the wrong way!
Now that you mention it, has anyone seen Ginger lately?
You're right. But, I didn't call others out for not signing THEIR name like he did. Big difference. Please try to keep up.
I can't wait until the Maryland State Fireman's Association meets with Tri Townsend. He will get them clowns at the MSFA straight.
Bunky Adams retired? Don't you have to work, at some point, to retire? I guess kissing butt IS a job after all. Who knew?
Wicomico Central just checked up on one of Salisbury's ambulances. I think it was A-1 and the ambulance crew just got smart with Central about it. Central just said "It is a 10 minute response check and our policy to check up." It has been 10 minutes and that ambulance hasn't even arrived at the scene yet?? Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't most of this flap with the Station #1 volunteers about responding in 4 minutes or less? WTF!! I guess it is Ok for the paid fire crews to take 10 minutes or longer to get to the scene, but if you are a volunteer you have to get there in 4 minutes or less. You talk about double standards.
I wonder if Station 16 President Tri Townsend is going to bring that up when he meets with the MSFA Prez this week?
I bet if Lt. Cropper got caught that close to the fire scene with no turn out gear on he would have been suspended or fired.

You are kidding me? John Tull is in charge of the office girls these days? Just like Jeff Simpson did to Rick Hoppes. I bet that is pay back for John Tull sucking up to Jeff Simpson to get promoted to Sr. Assistant Chief in charge of Operations while Hoppes was the Head Office Girl in Charge.
Why did Jeff Simpson demote Bunky Adams from Captain to Lieutenant?

Bunky Adams was good at kissing butt, but John Tull was the expert. Brezler and Simpson creamed when John Tull kissed butt. You see that thing on John Tull's lips? It's not a mustache it's ring marks.

The majority of the people making negative comments must have been Hillary voters. Probably saying the same thing about President Trump. Can't stand authority and jealous of the position. Just for curiosity, I asked a Fireman at BWI to give me his thoughts on this. Without being there and not knowing the true nature of the fire he could only say Chief Scott was not in the line of the fire. What that means I have no clue but that being said I'm not a Fireman nor confess to be like the experts commenting here.
March 14, 2017 at 7:34 AM
If you are not a fireman and don't know what you at talking about then WTH did you comment.
Something tells me you are lying and just defending Darrin Scott. How could Joe have posted this last night and "just out of curiosity" you just happened to ask a paid BWI fireman and posting this comment at 7:34 AM in the morning! I am throwing down the BS flag on this one.

You just happened to ask a paid BWI fireman for his expert opinion on this?? When was the last time you saw a house catch fire at the BWI Airport?
You know what I find interesting? Almost every single night the paid ambulance crews have to be re-alerted because they sleep through the first call.
Why is it that the paid fire crews can sleep at night and sleep through calls and Rick Hoppes doesn't set response time standards for them?
Rick Hoppes used that to force out the volunteers and convince the mayor and council to hire more paid firemen.
If you want to find her, just look for Bunky!!!
Yep. Different rules and standards for different people. If you are John Tull, Darrin Scott or Jimmie Gladwell, as long as you keep kneeling down and opening wide, you are untouchable.
I'm sure John Tull loves that position. Same pay and less work. That's been his MO his entire life. Do as little work as possible, take credit for everything and cash his paycheck.
It's four minutes to respond from the firehouse for a call. Get your info right before making yourself look even dumber than we already thought you were.
Spoken like a true station 17 jolly vollie
He's had enough of a job tracking your failures over the last couple years
Also an incorrect statement.99% of the time they get "realerted" because central has their tv's up to high to hear the response
Hahaha this is cover up at its finest. They might say "responding" but it is from the bed. We all know the real truth doesn't take eight min to go three blocks away, if they really are responding!
But, the big bad fireman has the gonads to come in here and call someone "sissified punk" then he should have the same gonads to put his name down! Who is from the trailer park now? With your "cash me outside, how bou dat?" attitude!
Tri Townsend aka Cherry Cheeks meeting with the president of MSFA now that's an authority on fire Service. The failure rate of station 16 if counted would be in the 90% range. What this lawn nome is going to tell him is the Fire Chiefs backed lies. Fake statistics and genuine BS.
Tri Townsend aka Cherry Cheeks, please take your stations failure rate of over 90% to the MSFA. they love real farmin. Take them some coffee too while your at it. Make it for them like you do for the chief coffee boy.
From what I have seen over the past week is that there must be some real hatred of volunteers by the career firefighters. They really have shown their true colors here and as city taxpayers we are not at all happy. It's all about the big hero syndrome and paycheck. Our group will be notifying the Mayors Office with our disgust at the actions of our so called professionals. No wonder the volunteers at station 1 left, I would not want to be in that hostile work environment especially for free anyway. Good luck station 1 volunteers, most of the community supports you and when you are up and running we want to donate and help in anyway we can.
I bet if you were hanging out a window at 3am you wouldn't care
7:53 spoken like an actual sissy.....
3:29 what an idiot would say that Tri .Townsend is going to meet with MSFA and straighten those " CLOWNS " out. Sounds like that's going to be a productive meeting , someone from station 16 called them clowns and wants meet. If I were president Davis I'd let your stupid, pompous, arrangement butt with an over inflated vision of yourself come on up and then send you back to station failureville with a sore rear end.
But, no one was hanging out of a window and this wasn't 3am. What's your point? Always trying to scare people and be a hero
Wow, how ridiculous our fire professionals sound with comments like these. It's absolutely tragic. What is wrong with you so called adults so hell bent on destroying each other anyway you can. So much for working together!

It also make Rick Hoppes feel like he is more intelligent with his fake college degree from a fake college.
Bunky retired? He didn't tell me.
When is Rick going to retire?

Exactly. There is no need for a paid fire department on the Eastern Shore, much less Salisbury.

Joe your statements are very accurate. You don't know how many times lately I have seen Darrin Scott and the Salisbury Fire Department chiefs car at BWW and the Elks Club. Poor Darrin is so lonely he has resorted to getting drunk all the time and stalking women.
What's Jake Day going to say if things don't change and he is employing a Registered Sex Offender.
So, you learned a new catchphrase. "Cash me outside..." is old and played out. What are you...14? You're neither funny nor witty...just sad.
You go girl!!! Word on the street is that Darrin Scott is looking for some "company"
I would like to think that the people making the comments here were in either of three places. Elementary school, mental institution or a trailer park. This would be exhibit A of Americas failed education system and morals. Bantering back and forth with a shadow enemy named Anon to the point of exhaustion and actually believing that your winning. I feel dumber for just reading the ridiculous statements here and pray I'm not infected with stupidity.
6:44am so Darrin Scott is now driving his chief car with government tags to the Elks and drinking and stalking women, and at BBW also. Didn't know this, what is he doing ? Unless he's trying to troll for women in his fire chief costume. His widdle costume and widdle gold colored tin star, And Barry Fife mobile parked out front. Chicks dig it. Lol ! It's a shame to see someone revert back to childhood at such a young age.
6:40 wow Justin Byrd. Not a bad guy but really, let's see, 3 weeks ago he was a firefighter, then became engineer, and in the next week promoted to Lieutenant. Now that's some suction power right there. Hell next week he will have Deputy Chief Lee Smith's job. Shows what a&& kissing will get you in the good ole SFD.
All you need to know is Lt. Byrd is a member of Salisbury and doing his part for the organization. Darrin Scott is the Deputy Chief and doing the same. Both men have the credentials and have taken the test to achieve their ranks. Unlike some former members who could never pass EMT or pass a promotional test. Either way your on the outside looking in.
911 can not stop them they dispatch and the fire departments send whatever they want. Even if 911 advises them they weren't dispatched they still go on their own.

I bet if some laws were put on the books they could be stopped.
FYI to all the 911 Watch Dogs. There are no laws that dictate what apparatus can respond to calls. In larger departments the dispatchers work off of pre-determined response cards that dictate what equipment should go. Salisbury is one of those with pre-set unit response assignments.In this area most stations receive the dispatch and take what they think they need. In any circumstance the officers answer the calls with the idea of saving lives and property. When it comes to emergency services you cannot pinch pennies. Leave the job to the experts regardless of what you think you know.
911 has there SOP's and fire departments have theirs, has nothing to do with laws. A law won't change that. What is needed is a fire commissioner that the city and county are to abide by. The county should put them all under this umbrella and it would stop part of the city's BS.

You have no idea what laws are out there so don't even start.
"Salisbury is one of those with pre-set unit response assignments." Doesn't mean it is the right thing to do and I can assure you there is no "pre-set unit response assignments." If you continue to argue this then produce document to Joe Albero at SBYNews otherwise you are a lying paid Farmin.
"In any circumstance the officers answer the calls with the idea of saving lives and property." Typical paid farmin response. Just because they do it they think it's "saving lives."
"When it comes to emergency services you cannot pinch pennies." Typical paid farmin response. Using scare tactics to spend money. I have a feeling this clown doesn't even pay taxes in Salisbury!!

Lt. Byrd? BWHAHAHA!! You mean acting lieutenant! If he had the credentials then he would be a full fledged lieutenant. We all know that Hoppes is using that "acting lieutenant" carrot over Justin Byrd's head to make him do what Hoppes wants. Also Justin Byrd is the President of Station 2's Corporation and that is a conflict of interest.
Darrin Scott has the credentials? On paper only. Every test that Darrin has ever taken that he eventually passed is because John Tull or the "training officer" fudged the documentation. You have a mental illness for claiming those 2 have the credentials to be officers in a paid fire department.

It's all about control. Hoppes can control whoever he wants by making them an officer or an acting officer.
The only reason Lee Smith is the volunteer Deputy Chief is because he does absolutely nothing and let's the paid firemen establish command on all fires. I have no idea why he even responds to calls. Hoppes has that position just where he wants it because the person in that position isn't in power or has any authority.
Lee Smith you are a joke. You are a Pussy and all you are doing is riding around in a free car with free gas. Resign you fat slob! You are hurting the volunteers just for your self gain. Resign you fat slob!

The Trailer Park Twins and the Sparrow do have a problem with spelling. They have had a real problem with reading as well. They were unable to read the promotional exam notice which clearly stated the report time 0800, not 0823. They failed to understand they must pass EMT. Two terms as Acting Lt. and unable to pass EMT translates to Firefighter 1 Back Step. That means Lt. Byrd and DC Smith with their credentials are tasked with commanding those without the ability to follow orders. Don't look down on others because of your inability to follow orders and the chain of command. Page 1 of the officers training handbook. Exactly why your not in a position of authority.

See Ladies and Gentlemen, this is how the volunteers of the Salisbury Fire Department are treated by paid firemen.
Instead of referring to these gentlemen by their names they make derogatory comments about them referring to a Trailer Park as if that is a bad thing. I don't know about both of them, but I am pretty confident they live in a much nicer home that you ever will!

I see that the person posting as 7:52AM has a perfect grasp on the English language. I take it you are offended by being called a "Farmin!" Bwahahahahaha, you stupid Snow Flake Farmin. I guess you need a safe space as well!
And you are full of it. 911 tells them they were not requested and they still go. And there are not "laws" regarding this. So there's nothing wrong with my statement that is what happens here. That's why putting all the fire departments under a county fire commissioner would be better then maybe this BS would stop, especially with the city doing their own thing.
You must be a special kind of stupid person. 911 has their guidelines they dispatch by and all the fire departments around here have guidelines on what is to respond. For an example hydrant vs non hydrant area. There are not "laws" that dictate this. Don't see your name listed either hot shot. You can ask most members of any fire department to verify this. Each fire department has a copy of the county guidelines, you probably didn't know that either And if you are a member of a department better brush up on your training.
There are NO laws, you have no idea what you are talking about. I'm not a member of Salisbury, but even I know they have their own guidelines that they respond under. Smdh. And if you or Salisbury news needs to verify this, Joe has sources that could verify it. I'm not even the original poster and know it. Smdh

You wont post or answer any statement or question that ask a straight forward question. What experience or training do you have to make the statements you make here ?

Point your fingers somewhere else little girl, or are you one of those in the closet I love men firefighters who bunks with the boys?
anonymous 12:42, First of all, I just happen to be moderating comments today. We have a few different people that moderate comments and for the most part I never see 95% of the comments that come in here. So you shouldn't flatter yourself either.
Secondly, do you really think I give a sh!t what you crybaby girls have to say. I mean, look at yourselves. "Brotherhood Above All" my ass!
More like a pack of little girls who really don't give a crap about the very people or ideas you are supposed to believe in.
ALL of us sit back and laugh at the never ending cat fight you guys, (and I use that "guys" term very lightly) fight over.
You are a sorry bunch of drunks who get paid way too much and walk around like you are hero's.
So you see, I am MAN enough to call it like I see it and you pussies hide behind anonymous calling your own leaders all sorts of names. Well, right back at ya.
On my 12:52 comment, that's 99%.

No, I am not offended by your spelling.
If you can't spell certain words correctly, it means that your whole comment is worthless.

In your opinion Mr. Farmin, the whole comment is worthless. Sounds to me like you are the only one complaining. Must have struck a nerve with you. Do you still need some time in your Safe Space!

I think you hit the nail on the head Joe. I dated a girl briefly who was going through a divorce and she was telling me that her and her husband were involved in Swinging prior to the shake up. She was telling me they got contacted by a couple of paid firemen in Salisbury and Ocean City who were involved in Swinging as well. The only thing was they wanted to hook up with the husband and not her which apparently is uncommon in the Swingers circles. The male firemen wanted to hook up with her male husband. The only thing was I didn't stick around long enough for her to tell me who the paid firemen were. So it is true, there are male firemen in Ocean City and Salisbury who really do like Hoses. Wink, Wink.
I just wish I knew who they were because I would be posting it on here.
Just I've been hearing that Rick Hoppes has been contacting the "fire chief's" in the county stations and begging them to not support giving the Station 1 volunteers the fire district outside city limits. I think that is just wrong and proves it is all about saving paid fire jobs. They are some desperate paid firemen. The get county funding, state funding, city funding, federal funding, and revenue for ambulance billing even after the county already pays them to run the ambulance service. Sounds greedy to me!
