On FC's progress report, sounds like they revised it to a 37-1

L149 in the mix somewhere E279 Comms Car 12A Car 22G SQ288 act. SQ1

If I recall correctly the old rescue services rig, which had a rescue body, used to act occasionally as a Tac and also as SOC logistics. Could be wrong. I don't think this truck is around anymore? Not sure though. Of course, lots of other spares with rescue bodies.

Anybody know what would be in those red bags the members from E40 were carrying? Curious what equipment would be involved with the lobby control designation, if any.

Thanks, appreciate your insight

I personally do not understand how anybody can argue for anything other than "the closest unit to the call gets the run". Yes, I'm sure it sucks if you're in quarters and a multiple alarm goes out near you and you miss out while a relocator gets the job, but if they're closer, they're closer...

Thanks, sounds like SQ252 is on it. Not sure if SQ1 got in as an engine and thus 252 responding as a SQ, or if they're assigned as the HMTU

Per FireWire, 318 Nevins St President-Union Sts, ruptured high pressure gas main. Assignment: E-239,219,279,226 E-250 w/ 2nd Piece L-105,131,101(Fast) B-31,32 R-2 Sq-1, 252 D-11 Rac-2, 1 HM-1 HMB RB,SB CTU 0855 D11: 10-8 0902 D11: leaving the initial alarm assignment on scene, everybody else...

That's an incredible number of runs. It seems that debates arise from time to time as to who the busiest engine companies in America are, so I did some digging on this topic today and wanted to share some statistics. The busiest engine companies in FDNY currently do between 6,000 and 7,500 runs...

Sounds like the 46 was on another box when this came in, not sure who the AH chief is. Extra E/T requested, E289/L167

This question is in the weeds I admit, but I know there are people on here with first hand knowledge so I'll try: can you give a 10-75 as a final signal? My understanding has been that 10-75 is a request for resources, nothing more nothing less. On the other hand, the final signal describes the...

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe certain boxes near the water receive an automatic marine response regardless of the nature of the box. This was fairly close.

Sounds like 252 was on this, MB and M9 as well 7253 the box number

305 Hancock St at Tomkins Ave Fire on the third floor. Possibly: E214, 235, 217, 230, 280 s/c L111, 132, 123F, 102 s/c R2 SQ252 BN57, 37 D15 RAC2 Updates: 0737- BN57: Extra E/T 0741- BN57: Using all hands for a fire on the third floor of 4STY 20x60 non-fireproof, EXP1 Street, 2 Alley, 3 4STY...

They couldn't just bring the second piece, it only has two seats. My understanding is anytime the second piece is required they bring both with four personnel on the engine and two on the second piece.

Per FireWire, Marine 9 and the battalion en route mutual aid.

My understanding is all hands signals given in transit require the assignment of additional units not assigned to a conventional all hands. These include the rebreather unit, rescue battalion, tac, field comm, one Nolan cart unit, and one high rise unit. In terms of why the HR gets assigned, I...

But you agree they're an updated version of the collapse rigs designed to replace the collapse rigs, yes? That seems pretty clear from the specs. Also curious if you have any intel on why 7 vs. 5.

After reading the specs, it is quite clear these are replacements for the collapse rescue units. The compartmentation specs specifically mention quantities of wood to be carried in the rear, similar to the current collapse units, and the paint/decal specs specifically mention "Collapse Rescue"...
