You may have noticed I deleted some comments that to some were or could of been offensive. I encourage everyone to place their comments here but I ask that they are positive or use good judgement in there comment placement. The men and women of the departments in which I post take pride in the service they give to the communities of eastern connecticut. This blog is to show what the emeregency service of eastern Ct are doing everyday. This was not developed to pick on or make fun of any department.
