VOLUME  4  –  ISSUE  1

       The first issue was published in the Winter of 2002. It was 24 pages.  The front cover featured an engine from the Diamond Fire Company of Walnutport  (Northampton County). This all white 1995 Spartan Gladiator with a Saulsbury body is a true workhorse for the department.  It has a 1750 gpm pump and 750 gallons of water.  It was just recently refurbished by Bulldog Fire Apparatus.
