Picture Tolland: Going Back To the 1970s

TOLLAND, CT — The latest installation of the Picture Tolland series takes us back a time when shirt collars resembled hang gliders and the ties were as wide as ladders.

Pictured are Tolland Fire Department Honorary Members posing with Engine Tank 68 on May 22, 1977.

The names are in a secret fire department stash but local firefighters are challenging everyone to name those in the photo. Respond in the comments.
