    11/20/24 Manhattan 10-77 / 2nd Alarm Box 0313

    That just may have been the last model year of the Battalion sedans before they switched to Dodge station wagons.

    11/1/24 Manhattan 6th Alarm / 10-66 Box 1622

    How were they able to let this get away from them? 3:00 pm MBFKD; then fire breaks out on the 5th floor, then fire in the cockloft? We had many H type MDs in the south Bronx with vertical voids. Fires on lower floors always sent a truck co. to the top floor to check for extension and see if...

    Lifeguards - New job for FDNY ?

    If they do that, than maybe they should consider bringing in licensed plumbers as well. We go to enought water/steam leaks a year to warrant sending two plumbers and an officer in a minivan for mitigation, instead of making fire supression units unavailable.

    10/28/24 Queens 10-75 Box 4469

    That building's still there, and the BEPLAT TruValue hardare signs are still all over the building. (although, there are smaller blue letters in Chinese also on the walls) I wonder who is running the business today. I keep forgetting to stop in.

    Unfortunately, if the city had "leaders" we wouldn't even be having this conversation!

    What was the idea behind releasing 150 and then s/c 126?

    Eric Adams Indicted on Federal Corruption Charges

    Now that two FDNY Staff Chiefs have been implicated, when are they going to go after the then Fire Commissioner, Dan Nigro? MY guess is that Kavanaugh won't be touched since she's probably still heavily-hung in the Obama camp.

    10/5/24 Staten Island 2nd Alarm Box 4551

    Traveling EB on the SI Expy last night; the WB side looked like a vollie parade with all the apparatus and chiefs responding along with units coming over the bridge from Brooklyn. Is "Transmit the second on arrival" a new radio signal, and on arrival of whom? :D. I always thought that was a...

    South on Springfield to Union Tpke and they're in. 251 could have stretched from Qtrs..

    10/3/24 Queens All Hands Box 6771

    That's a hell of a long run for them. I would think that TL160 would be closer. Either way, E251 for years we've been saying should be a double house. The three closest trucks - 160, 162, 164 to their qtrs. is still a haul. If they are going to operate alone for a few critical minutes, I...

    Baltimore MD 6th Alarm 9/22/24

    By the looks of the occupancies, my money is on the Thai Wok as the origin. I know in Queens NY, 9/10 times when we got a taxpayer with an asian takeout within, that's usually the occupancy of origin - especially after midnight.. Two hydrants on that corner; one in front of that Bromo Seltzer...

    FDNY PROMOTIONS

    Did he have to submit his retirement papers first before accepting the position, or is it similar to taking a leave of absence without pay? And when the change of administration comes about, and a new commissioner picks his staff, I'm sure he can't revert back to his civil service position

    9/23/24 Queens 10-75 Box 6929

    Let's not forget that back then, the "MPO" had to double-clutch that manual transmission and no power brakes or p/.steering either. They earned their muscles!

    9/17/24 Queens All Hands Box 4631

    Why would it change? Still a straight run north on 154 to Clintonville back to 154 over the Cross Island. I guess that DIOTT crap mixed a lot of response areas; the neighborhood around E305/151 is a prime example.

    Monday in the Petrochemical Capitol of the World

    Two things don't make sense. The first is that whoever laid that pipeline didn't consider placing isolation valves - at least a mile apart in case of an emergency such as this; the second thing is the amount of gas that's still under pressure - 24 hours later. You would think that each...
