Anyone watching "On Patrol LIVE" last night and catch the job Toledo Fire Department had? Heavy fire on first floor upon arrival.

And Fort Dudley, E14/L4 did the most runs, mostly central station and ems.

You are correct. The 100 series are fires of any sort, 113 food on the stove, 115 incinerator. 321 would be an EMS call, 500 series are public service runs, 553 is a public service call, 554 is an assist an invalid. 600 is good intent, steam for smoke and 700 are false alarms or system...

Chicago early 80's Christmas Day. Actual temp was in the negative range, then you can begin to factor in the wind chill factor.

That was an impressive response and a great video as well.

January 10 1982 with an actual temp of -26 and a wind chill of -81. A 5-11 and 3 specials on N Wells, 5-11 on N Washtenaw involving 14 buildings, and a fire on Junior Terrace which would have been a normal 5-11. Mutual aid from 13 suburbs covered firehouses as well as recalling the second platoon.

Chicago has a 2-11 alarm @ 10250 Avenue O on the Far South East side. Heavy fire and smoke in a 100 x 200 1 story commercial with partial collapse. Now upgraded to a 3-11 by 2-1-10. There was also a Still and Box in as well with Squad 5 responding to that incident.

A Facebook post by the San Francisco Fire Department states that their Engine 3 did 10,616 total runs last year. Something for discussion.

CNN has video of this. Unbelieveable that all survived on the JAL aircraft, kudos to the crew for their actions in getting everybody off the plane. This reminds me of an incident where everyone survived an mishap several years ago due to the actions of the crew. This is why you listen to that...

Cambridge had a third alarm, Box 721 for a 4 story building fire at 15 Chester Street.

Haven't heard that synopsis since my time in Vietnam

Best wishes to all for a Happy New Year and if you celebrate please be careful on the roads. Me, I should be in bed by half-time of the GB/Min game. And I really hope we hear from one of our more illustrious members, "Mack".

Engine 20 protected the factories that were along the Chicago River. On January 1 1992 company was placed OOS due to manpower cutbacks. Most of that area is now resedential.
