> Come on Scott - that fireaxe!  You have to be kidding..
Hey Brother, thanks
   That fireax is hanging on the firehouse wall right now.

There weren't a lot of keepsakes associated with the fire department 
when I served.
Brave dedicated men and women willing to risk their lives at the drop of 
a hat.
But nothing much to point to and be proud of and remember the best times.
  I couldn't buy an antique parade fireax.
But that didn't mean we didn't get to have one.

   There is a very small sign underneath it

To those who came before us
And those who will come after us
  And we who answer the call today
       33

33 is the county radio call number for Happy Camp Fire.
  Each fireman has their own as well.
I was 3386
     yours Scott
