I just want to know how if they actually got anything done, or did they just talk about themselves the whole time.

And they will just as unlearned as when they started. Why don't they get a real education.

why is Vince Stover There ??

Part of the entire Incident Management process is to include every aspect of a major incident. Since Vince is the Logestic and Procurment Manager for the FD and oversees purchases he will be included in the major incidents we have. Who do you think writes all of the checks we cash when we go out on 'big' calls? This shows need, and helps him understand we we are calling for stuff that we otherwise would not.
