I do remember that rig Willy. It was super fast and smoked like a chimney. And we ran it up until the late 1990’s, it wasn’t disposed of until the present Squad A went in service and the 1986 Hahn became a spare. I remember pumping it at a fire on Boswell avenue around 1998-1999

I worked into LA last night. Tremendously windy going into land and this pic was about 10 minutes from LAX showing how close the fire was to the neighborhoods.

Well said Willy. We both know that the men and woman of local 892 went above and beyond as they always do. My thoughts are with the family.

I worked on both those rigs. Both were disposed of around 1995/1996. The ALF tiller was replaced by a Simon Duplex/LTI tower ladder, and the 1962 Seagrave was replaced by a 1970 Seagrave rear mount that at one time was Ladder 109 in Brooklyn. It’s sad to see ladder 2 in such a condition

A lot of fire to pull up to only having 12 personnel plus a battalion chief. The original fire building I believe was a two and a half wood frame multi family. This is a typical fire for Norwich and exposures and overhead wires always are a issue. But as always the Norwich brothers and sisters...

He needs all the help he can get

Thank you so much

I might have heard “ The chow is fine !! “ once or twice

Thanks for having me. It was a pleasure to work with Uncle Wilfred for all those years in Norwich
