Top of the world. Good job guys.

She has the standard American LaFrance starter "ring" when you start it.

Great episode ! Very interesting. Chief Lellis asked great questions and Cindy was equally good with her answers

This piece of apparatus used to be out at the station in Peacock gap. My dad drove it on many occasions usually during fire prevention week in October. He would give kids rides through the parking lots. The kids would ride up in the hose bay or a lucky couple of kids would be able to sit up front and ring the bell. This truck holds many fond memories for me. Dad, Captain Ken Mazza, unfortunately passed at the age of 51 just one month after his birthday, and three weeks before the birth of his first granddaughter, our first daughter.

RIP Ronny Thank you Marin Fire History Project-Marin County Fire Chiefs for filming his and sending it out on KZbin.

RIP Chief 💜👨🏼‍🚒

What a special day seeing this relic back up and running. As Steve said, it was going to take a long time to get this back in running, working condition. You couldn’t ask for a better team to get this project completed. Job well done fellas. Well done.

Thank you all for your service and this wonderful video.

That was great! Jack, Dick, and Dick’s son Matt are good men. The picture of the house fire was from Piedmont Drive. 1994.

Jim, you are bringing back old memories. Great working with you throughout the years.

I was John's engine operator on the Cedar Fire in San Diego in 2003 that he and Bruce talked about in this interview. As I recall, he had been hired as a late season replacement Seasonal Firefighter that year, was only 18, and as such, was very inexperienced. When Steven Rucker died, our strike team took on the role of representing Novato Fire. We led the procession to the airport, and were there when the hearse carrying his body went by en route to the cargo aircraft. All of us were directed to stand at attention as the hearse drove by us, and then "released" to at ease after it passed. I was standing next to John, and noticed that he was still at "attention", so I whispered that he could be " at ease", and his only comment was "I don't want to". I saw that kid grow up that day, and I've never forgotten that moment. I was so impressed. So glad to see him being successful in the fire service. Well done....

What a joy to see Jack and Dick again. I worked with them as a volunteer and a part time paid in the 70's. Wonderful people. Brings back so many memories. My best to them both.

50 years ago I drove that beast as a volunteer firefighter. Dad had love hate attitude with that truck, always wanted it to run like a finely tuned watch. So many stories about it like how the gas tank now does not have the Indian chief on the side of the gas tank anymore, poor Elmo almost falling out of the back of it, Chief Thornton being told that the crew were speeding on Sir Francis Drake when it didn't go that fast....My only regret is that HE the man never got to get his final ride in that great old truck. Looking good Steve

Love the Newberry Brothers!!! Dick, Jack and Paul…. Really enjoyed the interview. Thank you. I worked with both Jack and Dick and it was always my pleasure. What true gentleman.

So proud of my brothers! They loved being a firefighter. Now I have two sons that are firefighters, one for Central Marin FD. He is a captain. My younger son is with Marinwood. Now I’m a proud sister and mom❤️.

Very proud of my husband Dick and his brother Jack. Great interview!

Nice job! I loved seeing the old images. It's incredible how much change occurred there from the 50-70's.

Beautiful engine 👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you for putting this together. I have had the pleasure to work with the chiefs during my career. These three chiefs are legends in the Marin fire service.

I wouldn't have guessed I'd be watching this today. Only ever seen a Fire Box in old films and TV shows. Greetings from Northern Ireland.

Truck 17 is the only truck company in the Ross Valley area.

Rest in peace, Jean. A truly great man. 1926-2020

That was very good. Kudos to the local IMT's that can fill those initial voids.

Enough information for a student's fire prevention report, like Cliff notes!

salutations, Marin Fire. particularly captivating video. thanks. :)

Thanks for the opportunity to talk about the North Bay Incident Management Team (NBIMT), our background and current work. I want to add that we did do a full team activation to support the development of a Surge Plan and Alternate Care Site (ACS) for the County. We've been working closely with the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and staff from Health & Human Services (HHS) on this project. I want to recognize all the team members that have been supporting this project. NBIMT rocks!

Thank you for posting this video. Very proud of my grandfather!

It's great to see Ken. I enjoyed working with him when I was a seasonal at Woodacre in '77 while also working at Sausalito as a reserve.
