Eng. 260 is less that 4 blocks from the bridge. Wouldn't it be more logical to plant a ladder company on the island? An engine by themselves would most likely need a truck to force entry for them. They couldn't do that if they're carrying hose to the floor below to the standpipe connection...

Any word on what they're going to do with the old Quarters? Does it have landmark status? I believe Engine 94 (same building) has landmark status which is why the City wouldn't allow the companies to repaint the colors of the faded terra cota emblems over the apparatus doors. I believe E285...

Two jobs at this box; long run for 2nd due units. E.215 used to be right around the corner.

Wow - E304 to 84. Hope they packed a lunch for the trip; no rest stops along the way. That's almost a 20 mile relocation.

I'm just curious when "department policy requires the yellow hose to be in use at multiple alarms." Even with cross-connected mains, the more units that are being supplied, the lower the flowing pressure and volume will be at each hydrant. 35' yellow python doesn't seem like the appliance of...

Anyone know why E295 was relocated into E317? Were they OOS?

I had the same problem when I had to report to Church St. Doctor conditionally rejected me until I had a few teeth fixed/extracted. When I returned t weeks later, I had lost weight because I couldn't eat after surgery. I was again rejected because I lost weight and was told I had to gain...

Was L.167 on the box?

I don't see the need for 2, sometimes 3 rundowns for the same job. If someone "beat you to it" it's not the end of the world and you don;t have to get yours in just to show you're doing something. If the first one is missing something or needs correction, a polite private message with...

Some of you young guys have to take it easy. There's no medals or certificates for getting you post in first. Information posted here is just that - information for everyone to read and keep abreast of what's going on. Actually, I find it more informative as to what is going on during the...
