Unfortunately there's no actual timeline listed on this operation. I'm just hoping that recovering the Mayday member was enabled by either the first or the second fast truck. If not, this only illustrates the danger of removing a fast truck to use in the operation before the replacement arrives...

Just to clarify, I've always been a proponent of "Rule #2" on all types of social media; even admonished some buffs for videoing on scene fire and accident victims. My units were 1st due at this operation; I presumed but should have noted to forward that info. to me in a private message, not...

Well, not so much a rule of thumb. In NYC, unless they changed the codes, buildings 75' or greater in height require a standpipe system, not the number of stories. I've had buildings in the So. Bronx that were 7 stories, but were just inches below the 75' mark from grade level. They were a...

T/L119 first due?? were they relocated?

Any idea what company the member was from?

You'll never get THAT in the front door!

NYPD Freq's are only about 5 mHz above ours; yet, there was no problems with any of the PD division transmissions in Queens - unless it has to do with there's being a simplex system, and we use a duplex/rebroadcast system.

What was peculiar in Queens, you could hear clearly a field unit calling the Queens CO; but once the carrier was turned on, you lost the field unit and only heard the console acknowledging. Someone said that theyb may be testing the encrypting of transmissions. The only problem with that would...

That front garden area is 20 X 15

TWO s/c Addtl. trucks for overhaul?? Maybe SOC should seriously think about adding a Bobcat to their TAC support unit inventory. It could have been put to good use here!

Queens is having radio problems with mobile unit transmissions. Does anyone know the Queens backup frequency? RFI reportedly caused by Tropospheric propagation. All units were told to go to a backup frequency and not to contact the CO via cellphone unless absolutely necessary. 45 minutes...

Latest unofficial report upward of 60 shot, 22 deceased. Incident locations were a restaurant and a bowling alley. Suspect vehicle was just located at a boat ramp 7 miles south in Lisbon ME. Perimeter is being set up at 2245 hrs.

Had my first rippin' celllar fire in the 6 sty bldg on the corner 731 Lydig & Cruger about 49 years ago - had to change my underwear when we got back to qtrs. What I remember most about this was that back then, we lost our identity in relocating. That night, E.38 relocated to E.97. Then...

Exp. 2 and 4 were parking lots

3rd floor apartment, 2 LSO. Large MDA triple wing "H" - 8 trucks would fit the bill for searches on all upper floors in this case, even though only an All Hands transmitted.

Couldn't find the Zoom link in the email. See you all next month. Safe tours - Always!

With a active life of 10 years before replacement (ideally,) I'm wondering what they will be doing with the current Squad 61 and Ladder 10 apparatus when they get their new rigs. Will they include the original murals on the new rigs, and if not, what will become of the old rigs when they go out...
