Jeremy sits down with Lieutenant Mark Zidiak of Ladder Co. 2, Clifton, NJ Fire Department for the August 2024 @FireandSafetyNJ featured segment, Behind the Department. This series focuses on the department that built their 2022 Pierce Arrow XT 100' Heavy Duty Steel Aerial. A big part of understanding the apparatus builds is understanding the department and how they operate. So many factors go into the design and operations of a new apparatus. Looking at the final build is always easier to understand when you know why they built what they did. This conversation talks about the department, their membership, history and legacy as well as the future of the department. -- For more information on this build and the others in the 2024 Calendar project, go to www.f-ss.com or visit our YouTube channel.
