The picture seen here on the left is of the police ambulances. In the picture are, from left to right, officers Petrichko and Lombardi, Sgt. Morse (in van), Mayor McPherson, Councilman Bennett and Chief of Police Gaburri.

The second picture is of Baldwin Emergency Medical Services' founding members, from left to right: Ken Guerra, George Bauman, John Bower, Fran Lynch and Jim McKeen. They are pictured with Baldwin EMS' first equipment.
