This is the first set of class A uniforms Swanzey Center purchased. I don't know the year someone out there can help. When bingo started and East Swanzey Fire Company and Center Company ran a weekly bingo game. there was money to buy these. I'll do my best here with names Top Row L to R Jerome Weinrieb, Bruce or Gary Fred, Bill Smith, Elton Blood Sr, Ed Aron. Bottom Row Al Lancy, Morgan Wright, Henry Johnson, Gerry Bell, jack Parker, Larry Waters

The trucks of Swanzey Center Fire Company in 1975 it says but the Seagrave is still there and the Reel Truck is not. Now you see the 1956 International/Howe with a new 500 GPM Hale pump in front and cabinets, suction hose and ladders on the sides. 700 psi fog guns are still there but used mostly for brush/grass fires. We liked the ability to dig into the ground with the high pressure.
