Our members are from all over Louisville (and beyond), and our interest are just as varied. The crew of E7 (14 men divided into 3 shifts) includes many athletes, scholars, outdoorsmen and hardcore HALO players. Some single, some family guys. All of us are dedicated to providing the best service possible to the neighborhoods surrounding us. We take pride in knowing our jobs and our district and performing aggressively; whether on the firegrounds, a medical emergency or another emergency scene.

Join and post on the IAFF's Yahoo Group if you're a professional firefighter or supporter of the firefighter's international union. Another interesting page is Engine of Democracy , about Louisville politics from a firefighter's perspective.
I'd like to meet members and friends of the Old Louisville , Limerick and Downtown Areas, people interested in the history of those areas, Engine 7 or the Louisville Fire Department and any supporters of the LFD.
