Dear Battalion Viewers,
This time we put the Promo in our Viewer here on our Home Page with our other Promos.
Check it out and check out Tampa Fire Rescue coming next Friday November 6th.
This will be the first Webisode with Tampa Fire Rescue and it will be on it's own page in the South Section.
You know us, always changeing it up. That is the cool thing about the internet, no rule makers...
We will have two or possibly three webisosdes with Tampa and then we will begin to alternate each week between Tampa and San Diego...then, we may change it up again.
Yes, we may bring in a few webisodes from other locations where we have filmed such as Washington D.C.
AND, you may see a new section appear before the end of the year....is it the Southwest? Is it the Northwest?
Is it .........?
More to come...
Be safe out there...
Sincerely,
DRF

Dear Tulefog team, dear Mr. Furtado,
I just read in your newsletter that I won your contest!
This is really surprising for me; I just participated in this contest for fun and would never have expected to win anything. And this is actually my problem: As much as I remember, the prize was a 24h-day with the SFFD - Unfortunately I don't live in the U.S. and I'm afraid I don't think I'll be able to afford going to the US only for this occasion.
Please do not misunderstand this, I've been a volunteer firefighter for 15 years now here in Austria, and I would love to spend a day with US professionals to see how they work - hey, that's why I as watching your great series in the first place!
Therefore, I'd suggest you give my prize to the person who was graded to get the second price, as I see no other solution. I hope this is good solution; at least it should make the person happy who gets my price - I hope he or she is able to go to S.F.! ...Read more

Dear Battalion Viewers,
We have just finished the judging of our contest that was for Battalion Members Only and now have the results.
The results are that only one person got all the questions correct; that is Stefan Stoeger who is our first place winner.
Due to the fact that the contest went so long, we will be giving the prizes away to the first members that got the most right and who played first and in that order.
All winners will be announcing this week.
The Tampa Premiere will be this Friday...stay tuned.
Be safe.
Sincerely,
DRF

Dear Battalion Viewer:
The third webisode for San Diego is now available on our West Coast Section.
Tampa Fire and Rescue will Premiere this Friday Night.
Stay tuned for more news on our series.
Be safe.
Sincerely,

Dear Battalion Viewers,
It does look like the third webisode with San Diego Fire Rescue will not be available until Monday at 5:00; we can't make the computers work any faster than they do.
Tampa Fire Rescue will Premiere with its Promo next Friday at 5:00PM PST.
Sorry for the confusion...
Be safe.
Sincerely,
DRF

Dear Battalion Viewers,
This week’s webisode will not be available until Saturday or possibly Monday, please check back with the Tulefog Blog for the exact time and date.
Our Editor, Christian Porter, was bitten by a spider on Tuesday and has had to keep his leg elevated for the past few days.
As you know, we are a small company; and without Christian the show does not go on.
Be safe.

Dear Battalion Viewers,
Check out this photo from our shoot with Tampa Fire Rescue at an airport exercise the night I arrived.
The helmet has one of our new Helmet Cameras from Tachyon, they are the best I have ever seen. Check them out by clicking on their banner on our West Coast Section.
You will be seeing the footage from not only this exercise, but we have some great footage from two cameras on two firefighters at a house fire in Tampa, they were first in.
More to come.
Be safe.
Sincerely,
DRF
