TAMPA, Fla. (Reuters) - Fire officials were as red as
their fire trucks Thursday after announcing that five
firemen were disciplined for inviting strippers to the
fire station for a nude and topless photo session. The
women, identified only as Jamie and Heather, posed
with a fire truck at a city fire station in Tampa in
October. They were naked in some photos and wore only
high heels, firefighters' pants and suspenders in
others. Dozens of the pictures were posted on the
Internet.

The firefighters were charged with neglect of duty,
moral turpitude and insubordination.

One of the men, a captain, was fired. The other four
were suspended for two weeks to a month and will lose
up to $5,000 in pay. One of them had a part-time job
at a strip club where the women danced.

Fire Chief Dennis Jones said he was embarrassed by the
firemen's actions but that "they didn't miss any calls."
