These chiefs still don't understand why certain procedures were put in place. Maybe they should do some remedial reading at night.
Some day, putting the FAST TRUCK to work instead of using any standby resources to do temporary truck work until an additional truck company arrives, is going to some day bite someone with gold stripes in the ass with a lawsuit from the concerned.family
 
Since EMS also has a staging area and a response assignment on each alarm, has that eliminated the required response of Car 32 or 33 to multiple alarms?
 
1000004283.png
About a half mile walk from the EMS staging location to the fire building, and about a mile from the fire building to their rehab area
 
When I was there there wasn’t a single unit at that staging location. Most EMS units were in the parking lot covered by the “up” of rehab group
Maybe changed it, heard conditions 04 say they were going to the parking lot but I was heading out of the house at that point
