TOO BAD NO ONE BELIEVED IN MY MISSIONI have learned that most everyone who saw my posts, read my requests for funding, and saw what I had personally spent of what little funds I had of my own believed I was just trying to scam people so I could have money for my own use. Nothing could be further from the truth. I actually desired to help bring more to the Fire Service than just lip service. My goal was to recruit, train and retain as many volunteer Firemen for the rural companies as possible. Then to train no less than 14 full time Firemen for my private brigade who all would be first and foremost certified as wildland "Red Card" firefighters to some day if needed be of some use to the wildland crews everywhere. Now because of the lies and willful obstructions by so many whose mission in life was to see me fail I must watch my friends in Canada cope with many out of control burns and only lament my failure to have had people to send to help. It is for those reasons I bow to the absurd and suspend my efforts to help anyone anymore. I had given $500 each month from my Social Security funds that were only $830 each month at the time to have a business prospectus drawn up by professional grant and investment solicitors to try to start a campaign to bring attention to the needs of the Fire Service. All my sacrifice and energy was obviously wasted because of those who felt I was like them, a liar and a thief who just wanted money for myself. I truly underestimated the greed and corruption that is seemingly job one for so many people all around me. I was simply not aware of how naive I am as a grown man who was raised up by people who were willing to use harsh corporal punishment on myself and my siblings if we lied, stole or bragged which only led us to fail in life as it is impossible to gain when you are so hopelessly handicapped.So this is notice to all who are using my websites that I pay for every month and have willfully made free of ads and membership dues, that they are all going away. So take down all your intellectual property while you can. I am done giving of my heart, soul, body and mind to those who falsely accuse me and see fit to abuse my loving and giving nature. Now I will spend my last days focusing on myself, just like all of you do. I know I will be the better for it.GOOD-BYE!See More

GOD REST THE QUEEN,... GOD SAVE THE KINGBecause I have never been truly accepted by any nation or their people I am free to speak my heart in times like this. I have always followed the life of this amazing human being and will continue to weep this day for the loss to all the world. I have so much respect for this Royal who had so much power and who never abused it.  Now to "turn the page" and pray the new Royal will follow in the Queen's well beaten path. Always I respect those who have earned and deserve it. So I say to all my English and Canadian Friends, my love for you and your Queen will never die.Respectfully,Lieutenant Frederick Georges Acting Chief for American Independent Fire BrigadeSee More

Training is important to effectively create a reliable and competent team for any purpose, so it should be understood that the only outcome required from all training protocols is a well rehearsed team who can effectively produce a desired result. Therefor, the emphasis should be on how well the trainees perform their assigned tasks, not how fast.Too many training institutions make it their goal to mandate all preparation and deployment of personnel and equipment be done in a recklessly expeditious manner which too often results in injury and death as well as loss of equipment and private property. Most all of the negative results from such mandates are totally preventable, therefor it should be accepted that a paradigm change must be adopted by all Fire Departments and training institutions so tragic outcomes like the following link outlines will  never happen again.LINK: THIS NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENEDCause of death, Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER), a medical condition whereby damage to skeletal muscle is induced by excessive physical activity in otherwise healthy individuals. This is what happened to a healthy 31 year old man being trained by the FDNY academy because the program demanded too much from the trainees.To see this happen to a trainee engaged in one of Americas finest Fire Service training institutions is very disappointing. All of the responsibility must be born by the academy founders, board of directors and the instructors who will need to be afforded any and all help to realize their errors and accept a change in the institutions training protocols. This very problem is why American Independent Fire Brigade, a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity, was founded. It is our goal to help all who desire to become rural volunteer Firemen do so in the safest way possible while still being an effective force to save the life and property of the citizens in the communities they serve. So all who wish to participate and support our efforts please consider donating your time and any financial contributions you feel will help by contacting us at nsvff@yahoo.com or visiting this website and clicking on the DONATE button in the upper left column; LINK: AMERICAN INDEPENDENT FIRE BRIGADEThank you for your support.Acting Chief Frederick Georges American Independent Fire BrigadeSee More

My last trip to Spokane Washington really made me angry when I saw so many Americans, not immigrants from the latest surge, but citizens whose family lines go back to the Pilgrims who had adequate jobs and kids in school now living along the Interstate Highway.I feel for the Ukraine people, as I did for the Iraq civilian citizens who were dying by the 100's of thousands. But I felt more could have and should have been said and done about our own folks in trouble right here in our own nation. Katrina destroyed Louisiana, the latest floods in Texas to Florida were all given at least some attention. But the homeless in our nation which has so many Billionaires makes me sick to see first hand. I never was I given an opportunity to know about it by the NEWS outlets. ABC-CBS-NBC & even the tear jerking professional gossips on PBS failed to be bothered with any IN DEPTH reporting of the suffering here by our own folks who most every fortunate hard working citizen could actually reach out to and help.Everyone could and so should donate one dollar to put to good use for our "neighbors" right here in our "back yards". I have struggled for years to incorporate and apply to be a non-profit so I could use the manpower and resources I and other well meaning and able bodied folks could muster to help feed-clothe & house those of us who have fallen off the "American dream" into poverty and helplessness. So I ask now from all who read this and know who I am and what I am capable of, to please send one dollar to the link at the top of this page so we can actually do something to help each other. I guarantee 90 cents of each dollar will go to the goal intended. Unlike other organizations who give only 10 cents of each dollar collected and pocket the rest for what they claim are "administration fees". That is unacceptable!Below is my non-profit approval letter from the IRS allowing me to collect and be accountable for any and all funds donated and to report the use of all funds to the general public for their scrutiny.Top of the page - left hand column, click on the "DONATE" button. Please trust me and my associates to use your hard earned money only for helping those who need it. If we can not raise enough money to do any good, it will be refunded, every dollar of it.Thank you all in advance for your support.Acting Chief Frederick Georges-aka Friedrich VonDeitschAmerican Independent Fire BrigadeSee More
