Ford Bronco Beach Patrol by Phil's 1stPix

Ford Bronco Beach Patrol

I guess back in those days, no one needed shade, a specially designed SUP, or even one of those fancy rescue cans or tubes...

A lifebuoy tossed in the back, and the whistle around their neck was all they had.

Flocking to the Thanksgiving Feast by Phil's 1stPix

Flocking to the Thanksgiving Feast

Many, many, turkeys made the pilgrimage to Porky's Famous Firehouse BBQ in order for this event to take place.

Some were roasted in herb and butter, others were smoked, a bunch were flash-fried, a few were even Honey-glazed, but not a single one was spared, and they all were delicious.

Climb the Ladder at Holiday for Heroes by Phil's 1stPix

Climb the Ladder at Holiday for Heroes

If classic fire chiefs aren't your cup of tea, I'm sure they'll let you climb to the top of tower.

Don't worry, If you panic and freeze up while you're swaying back and forth up there, you won't even have to call 911...

Plenty of Cops Out in Force for Turkey Day by Phil's 1stPix

Plenty of Cops Out in Force for Turkey Day

With a quarter of the shift on hand, including a pack of K-9s, at any given time, there's very little chance that any of the stores in the Metro Plex will be the target of a holiday burglary.

Not So Fast at the Feast by Phil's 1stPix

Not So Fast at the Feast

Her days of running down speeders on the Gulf-Atlantic Expressway are coming to an end, but she can still handle a traffic assignment on Turkey Day.

Truth is, her AC is struggling,these days, and will probably force her to be put out to pasture long before the tranny goes or the engine quits.

Bumper to Bumper on Head Honcho Row by Phil's 1stPix

Bumper to Bumper on Head Honcho Row

Just like an emergency scene, it's organized chaos down there, and takes some fancy maneuvering to fit everyone in and out.

Parking in designated areas allows the master of ceremonies to keep track of who's in attendance, and who's out there holding down the fort.

Turkey To Go Parking Only by Phil's 1stPix

Turkey To Go Parking Only

While most of the runs are being made by "Turkey 2", "Goobler 4" fills in the gaps to deliver to some of the larger destinations like MBTC and Phillips County General.

After all, if you're going to use a walk-in box rescue to deliver Thanksgiving, why not use the cleanest truck in the fleet.

Chevy 3100 Suburban Ambulance

It might not have all the bells and whistles, medical marvels, or most notably, headroom, of modern ambulances, but this baby would still get you where you needed to go when the call came in.

Thanks to the rear panel doors, it was much easier to load the stretcher and climb in and out.

They're allotted more than enough "Out of Service" time to attend the banquet, while other crews take turns covering their districts.
