BOSTON-- "Two Boston firefighters were killed and two others critically injured after being trapped
in a disorienting cloud of dust and smoke when an enormous rooftop air condition unit fell into a burning restaurant in West
Roxbury last night...read more here
"Tonight is a very sad night for the city of Boston," Mayor Thomas Menino said. "Two of our bravest
have lost their lives in a fire in West Roxbury. Our prayers and offers of help are extended to the families of those two
firefighters and the other firefighters who were injured in the line of duty. This is a dangerous job, and these firefighters
answered the call."

CV-22 Osprey Training
12:00 pm cdt
The morning of Friday August 10th, a severe storm ripped through the area and Truck 6 was
dispatched to a smoke investigation call around 2:30am. Truck 6 crew found smoke comming from the ridge vent
of a 2 story house. Upon further investigation, the crew found a fire in the attic above the second story. Truck 6's
crew was able to contain the fire. The celing in one of the bedrooms was pulled. Engine 7 also assisted with the
overhaul. This is a perfect example of why you should always pack out and be ready to go on all calls,
this smoke investigation call turned out to be the real deal and Truck 6's was on the ball. Great Job Truck 6 crew.

A message from the President, Shannon R. Stone
Shannon's term as president
ends this June.
Thanks to all the members for the continued support I received
during my two terms as president of Local 2601. I feel we have made great progress during that time and it could not have
been accomplished without the support of each member and the E-Board. It has been an honor to serve the men and women
of IAFF Local 2601.
ELECTIONS for a new President will be held in JUNE 2008. Anyone interested should
contact an E-Board member ASAP.
| ON THE JOB! |

| Capt. Stone(Prez)-have a look before ya go! |

"Sticker club"
Please remove all IAFF markings
from your vehicle when selling, trading-in, etc. The IAFF logo is universally known and respected and identifies both them
and their family members as part of an elite profession and connected to Organized Labor. IAFF decals and emblems should not be given or sold to any individuals or non-family members who are not IAFF members.
What you perceive to be a friendly gesture may be viewed by a police officer as illegal. Police in some states have interpreted
the displaying of an IAFF or fire department logo by individuals who are not firefighters or the immediate family member of
a firefighter as impersonating a firefighter, which is illegal in most states.
DO THE RIGHT THING. REMOVE IAFF DECALS WHEN DISPOSING
OF A MOTOR VEHICLE IN ANY WAY.
Have something to say? Suggestions? We want your input!
