Cullman EMS Answers Call During, After Storms

FDNY Unveils Revisionist History EMS Week 2011 Posters | The ...
The New York City Fire Department unveiled their EMS Week 2011 posters yesterday during a press event at Department Headquarters. The posters have become an annual event for the department, one of the few things it does to draw attention to its EMS activities. The posters are placed around the city on 350 public phone booths.
