A historical look at EMA/ESDA vehicle
This is a message from Brian Murphy:
The following photos were taken in the early to mid-1990s and showcase various EMA and ESDA support vehicles. Most of these units were either built by volunteers using parts or entire retired fire apparatus, or they were donated vehicles that had previously served in fire departments. Many of these rigs had long operational lives supporting both fire and police departments, and some may still be in service today. All the images were captured with small 35mm cameras—no digital photography here, just classic film shots.
