Dave Springer replied to Dennis Edgerly's discussion 'uniforms in the classroom' in the group EMS Instructors

Way to go Wyoming

I just returned from the 39th annual Wyoming Trauma Conference. It was held the weekend of August 20th through the 23rd at Little America in Cheyenne, Wyoming. What a great time. The conference committee did a fantastic job of putting everything together and made it run like a well oiled clock. (do you oil clocks any more?)

Ben Waller replied to JEMS Web Team's discussion 'IAFF, IAFC Fire-based EMS'
Most of the places that tried combination fire/police services were small towns or mid-sized cities. Most of those places didn't have lots of administrative staff to begin with. The fire/LEO combinations mostly ended up just being police departme...
