Fl TF 3 from the Tampa area is headed to Sarasota FL and TF 4 from Orl area is headed north to GA or the Carolinas. I forget which

Pretty much what Raybrag said. Basically it's a bag with lightweight line somewhere between 50 and 100 feet long that floats and is a bright color. Depending on who makes it, it's sometimes attached to a life ring or something similar, Usually there's a loop you put your wrist thru, and throw...

Makes zero sense to me either. When the units get dispatched, together, 285 and 142 are still going to end up in front of 225 and 107. The only possible reason I can see, is that individually, sending 225/107 before 285/142 is to keep the relocations down. With 285 and 142 in qtrs, they can...

331/173 has an odd response area to begin with. Forgetting the area is made from bedrock, they have a relatively small first due, and an even smaller 2nd due. They seem to see more fire in other areas compared to their own. But that's just my observation.

I'm curious about something. In order in Howard Beach to Cross Bay and 165 Ave, it's 331, 285, 225. How does that switch when they run to the Rockaways to 331 225 and 285? Just seems strange. Noticed that several times now so it's not a 1 off event.

I googled it and nothing is showing up. Considering what else happened that day I'm somehow not surprised.

Per NYC Firewire FB page Aprox 1930 Bronx *UNUSUAL INCIDENT* Box 3330 Eng.48/Lad.56 2417 Webster Ave ENG.48 REQUESTING NYPD FORTHWITH. A MAN RAN INTO THE FIREHOUSE, NOW THERE IS A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE TRYING TO BREAK INTO QUARTERS TO GET THAT MAN HIDING.

I'm not saying what happened was right or wrong in this instance, but apparently this driver has a habit of parking in front of Hydrants. Apparently he owes close to 10,000 in fines fornhydrant violations...

Np. I dont know too much about who is where in Bklyn other then 225/107 236 and 332/ 175. Past that I'm pretty lost.

Is 266 supposed to be 236 or 226?

Depends on where you are. In Fl its 5 or more.

I think i remember those things. They were in a blue or green box that basically unfolded. We had 3 different setups to fill our bottles. Our heavy had a compressor and Cascade system for breathing air. We could refill bottles as needed on scene or use the reel lines for confined space or...

I'd go with this answer. Technically speaking, an MCI is anything over 5 pts. 2 cars with 3 occupants per car injured would qualify. So would a full subway station below grade with a smoke condition. And just about everything you can imagine.

Each Battalion has a bottle depot. Usually a box with a certain amount of spare bottles. So if a given company in the battalion needed to swap bottles during a shift, they just ran up to the battalion depot. Or possibly having the Div messenger might run some over. In the 51 it was at 308 and...

I think this may be the same fire. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/o3LJLFpeqZ8QWAdr/?mibextid=oFDknk

Alot. From my limited understanding, the bridge pier protection line of thought really didn't take hold until after the Tampa Skyway Bridge was taken out. Since the Key Bridge was built before the original Skyway, it never had the additional protections put in. Allegedly it was talked about...

Not seeing it on the active 4th in da Bronx 260 is/was acting 55 and 291 is/ was acting 33 which may be part of the problem.

291 is the back up. If I remember correctly, SP1 is at 238 and 260 has the foam truck. I think they need to redo the floors to get SP1 into 260s bldg. And the foam truck to 238.
