Thanks for showing us a rig, from your country - most of us are not too familiar with.
As for me - I have seen the "Fray Bentos" brand of Corned Beef, imported into Canada.
Uruguay must have a National Fire Service, from your comment.
Are there Volunteer Fire Departments, in the rural areas - outside of the cities ?
Regards, from Canada,
