    6/20/24 Bronx 4th Alarm Box 2297

    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...

    Mask Service Unit

    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...

    FD Response for a MCI

    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.

    Mask Service Unit

    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...

    3/26/24 Baltimore MD Bridge Collapse

    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...

    SUPER PUMPER 1

    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.

    6/17/24 Staten Island All Hands Box 1391

    83 is in a rearmount. They normally would carry 2 or 3 rolls of hose for the ladder pipe waterway on the rare occasions that they use it. Especially considering how clean the hose is.

    I honestly don't know. I've been out of NY for a while now, and things change almost on a daily basis.

    New Seagraves

    They have, but at the same time with brush fires you dint always have access to a hydrant. I know in Spring Creek and down in the bird sanctuary in the Rockaways, there's roads that run into to the brush, and engines are ba k there quite frequently. I've seen videos of places in Brooklyn that...

    New FDNY Tillers

    The $69000 becomes is the drivers position a paid position and if so by how much compared to a comparable ff? If were only talking 50 cents per hour, that's fairly negligible. Even a couple of bucks per hour is still fairly negligible when looking at the overall budget. Big question is, what is...

    New Seagraves

    Yep sorry. Probably fat fingered it. Another surprise is they went back to 500 gallon tanks from the 750s they used to have. I think that was at least 2 generations of rigs ago though.
