FireCritic.com – The Fire Critic – An Unadulterated View of the Fire Service.
There is a new blog on the horizon. The Fire Critic is kinda like Firefighter Hourly meets FireGeezer…some angst, some knowhow, some interesting stuff, and a little bit of the rest.
Check it out. It has been a while since I have had a link dump or highlighted other blogs but this one is promising. Check it out here or link on the image above.
Here are some new ones I have come across. Most of them have been incorporated in the blogroll to the right, others are linked on VAFirenews.com.
