4/27/25 Staten Island 10-77 Box 0219
It seems to me that Tac 2 goes to a lot of calls on SI where the Tac wouldn't normally be assigned. They've been on a few AH lately where D8 asked them to be put on the box. Just a guess, but guessing since it is a unique area and they're in with the 8th, the Division tells them to self assign...- HFN01

4/19/25 Queens 3rd Alarm Box 8300
Guys, I understand that not everything is for general consumption. That said, when you're on a forum full of folks who are highly interested in all things FDNY, people are going to be curious about an unusual assignment. Nobody wants to see the FDNY cast in a bad light, or have someone's privacy... -

4/20/25 Queens 2nd Alarm Box 6658
They're allowed to respond to lower alarms at their discretion, seems to be fairly normal practice among the current group to respond to a heavily-involved second alarm / multiple injuries, etc -

4/9/25 Staten Island 3rd Alarm Box 447
Is there any particular reason they won't assign South Brooklyn engines on a greater alarm in this area of North SI? Quick look at the maps suggests E242 and surrounding companies would be much faster into this than the far-out SI companies such as E164- HFN01

Rescue Equipment Question
On the topic of differences between rescues, I believe Rescue 5 does not carry a boat on its main rig, unlike all the other rescues. R5's boat is kept on the collapse rig. My understanding is this is because, unlike the other rescues, R5 is in quarters with Tac2, and therefore will use Tac2's...- HFN01

Rescue Equipment Question
Noticed something in a video and I am hoping someone here can shed some insight, out of curiosity. The video is from Manhattan Box 0891, technical response for a person trapped in a dumbwaiter shaft. At approximately 2:30 in this video, R1 and SQ18 members stretch what appears to be a 3' line...- HFN01

3/28/25 Brooklyn 10-66 / 2nd Alarm Box 2356
"BK: E332CU, B37 Staging Area Manager, B38 FAST Group Supervisor, B44 FF Locating Officer, E227 w/ RC2, E231CFRD, L156 - FAST?" I believe I overheard TL157 assigned as the new FT after L123F went to work. -

Frequently Asked Question
I don't think that is correct regarding the Safety response. An additional Chief from the Safety Command responds on the third alarm, but most of the time lately it has been a BC. The current Chief of Safety is a DC, not a DAC or AC. I think the current response is that a BC from Safety responds... -

3/18/25 Brooklyn 10-75 Box 202
Also Marine 1 was assigned on this, they just went 10-8 back to Manhattan. I think the normal marine response to a shore-based fire is two units, right? M6 and M1 in this case?
