Re: Fort Worth Info

[Guest guest]

I am sorry that I offended you however, the Fort Worth FF that were on scene

were personally thanked by me, I unfortunately did not get the chance to

thank the crews that came in or my supervisors. I was first on and felt

that FD did an exceptional job. The teamwork was excellent. You weren't

there, so maybe that is why you are unaware that they were thanked. Marisa
