Can you guess who this young Vigilant firefighter is? I must be crazy for trying this again after the poor response I got a few days ago.
No comments can be made anonymous, you need not sign in but you must sign a name or they will be deleted. This is just to seperate fact from fiction and keep it from being anything like whacker fest pa fire.
I am sorry to add the word verification but recently 88 of my post were spammed in one night. I do not have the time to correct that many post again, so this will eliminate the bullshit.
I'll try this is, Paul Healy, not sure of the spelling of the last name,
ReplyDeleteIs it Dad.

ReplyDeleteLooks like young Zach so the year would make it Ken Nehf
It is Paul Healy, you younger guys wouldn't know Paul since he left the area quite some time ago. I always thought it was a pretty good photo of him and one of the better portaits the paper ever took.
ReplyDeleteYour all wrong it`s the "Greek"
ReplyDeleteHe was a college student and was active with us for the four years. This was a cold morning and an eventful morning. Earlier was rolling across the ground after the oil fuel oil tank blew up.
I remember well being a hot one then after the fire was out we froze.
The fire was actually at Maclays Mill back the lane just before the double hump bridge.
ReplyDeleteSeagrave, I don't remember the "Greek" unless that is what you called Healy but this is Paul. The caption under the photo in the paper said that plus is was taken by Caterinni and you know how she had the hots for him. He was also a Lieut. that year.
ReplyDeleteAddress are hard on the older ones since we didn't use street numbers then. I have to go by what the paper gives. Remember the Civil Defense room would just give you next to so and so's farm or the blank residence and everyone knew where to go. That would never work today.
Brad,
ReplyDeleteSorry I was TDY from work last time you must have asked and so I didn't see it, but this is Paul Healy. He was a college student at Ship, and was a member of Vigilants.
Sis
Brad,
ReplyDeletePaul and Greek are the same guy.
E4 Lt,
This was way before I was a member. I wasn't voted in until the Feb. meeting, 3-4 weeks later.
Kenny
Kenny I thought they called Paul the "Greek" but I didn't remember, to much lager destroying the brain cells. This was also a month before I became a member, at the CV's. Of course for the next two years we only made it to calls by sneaking on the rig and then having Dale give us hell when we got back.
ReplyDeleteKenny is correct ! Greek is what we called him around the station and at Cresslers where about 6 of us from the station worked during our high school years.
ReplyDeleteBrad, after the smoke in the bldg call last night. Ged, Kenny, Pap and myself were discussing who was on in your pics last night.

I knew this one, I let someone else speak up.
ReplyDeleteDr. Paul Healy is the Superintendent of Bermudian Springs School District. And looking a little grayer these days.

hey - stop talking about me like I'm dead - you are correct - that is me - Paul Healey (Greek) in that picture - I stayed at the firehouse during my college days and we were instrumental in getting the first bunkroom up and running - I was a lieutenant for a while and remember this fire
ReplyDeletenow living in Mechanicsburg not far from Brad with my wife and three daughters - currently Superintendent of Bermudian Springs School District and I am still an EMT and volunteer in the ER at Holy Spirit Hospital every Sunday - it was great viewing this site and the comments - wish you all well - paul
Brad, who is going to pop up next on your Blog? Will it be Chet, Ragman, Pap (Sanders) or Larry? Paul, maybe you should come to this years banquet! It has been a long time since I seen you. It is March 7th. Kenny, remember that you have to work that day.
ReplyDeleteWMIT
Wow! Pauls ears must have been burning with us talking about him. I am guessing someone gave him a heads up on the post. It is nice that you stopped by Paul.
ReplyDeleteWMIT Bill Dubbs looks at the site, I don't know about the other three. I am guessing that there may be numerous older guys checking out the site.
I see Chet almost every week and he has told me he does not have a computer.
ReplyDeleteNice to read your post, Paul. As WMIT said, you should attend this years banquet.
Take care all
Grizz
Did someone mention Ragman ?????
ReplyDeleteI'm baaaack !!!!!
It's good to see these photos and articles. It brings back a lot of good memories.
Paul "The Greek" Healey. Tell everyone how you pissed off al the women over the bunk room. Hhhhmmmm.
Does any body remember the controversy????
Take care everyone and be safe out there. Just remember, you're the one who doesn't take a bottle of stupid pills in the morning before you head out.
