Should be CTU1 not CTU2, right? Per the order, the 14th Division and the northern boxes in the 15th and 11th are all CTU1. If I read correctly.

This idea of an extra rescue and squad on the 4th alarm is interesting. I share the skepticism about whether it is required as mandatory (vs right now where the IC can special call based on their own assessment of conditions). One thing to note is if you buy in to the idea that rescue and...

I'll take a stab at your question: I think the view is that having a rescue and squad available on scene is important in case something goes sideways. Under normal circumstances, yes, they're doing truck work, but they'll be put to work alongside the FAST team if something goes wrong. In this...

Quite a fire. The result of just one 10-45 and a green tag at that is a credit to the amazing work of the companies

135 Washinton Walk at Myrtle Ave Fire in Apartment 3D of a 6STY MD. Some units/maybe: E210, E207, E226, E219, E211AH L110, L102, L105F, L119AH SQ1 R2 BN31, 57 D11 RAC2 TA330 Relocations: E201 act. E219 L147 act. L110 Updates: BN31: using AH, looks like a mattress in the rear (E211 L119) D11...

BN22: extra E/T SI: transmits the AH E163 normally 4th due was on an EMS run.

The 4th Division hasn't been in service since 1997

The short answer is no. Fire operations are the purview of the Chief of Department and those under his command. While I am sure there may be the occasional conversation between a COD and a Commissioner in cases where the Commissioner had fire experience (some do, some don't), the Commissioner's...

There has been a big difference from commissioner to commissioner in terms of how often they respond. From what I recall, Nigro responded to most larger incidents (5th alarm fires or major technical incidents). Kavanaugh did not respond often. Tucker on the other hand responded more than the...

Not to nitpick but also L153 on the 1st and 2nd alarm

What are the regulations around the dispatchers giving signals, does anybody know? Obviously BK giving a 10-75 is rare, though understandable in the circumstances. Could they give a second alarm? Are there any rules around this?

Four. 3FF, one Officer

Tac 2 and CTU 2 on this. There was something about an unsafe structure came in in Queens around the time the 2-2 was transmitted here, so RB and SB were not on the initial assignment, they went 10-8 to take this in, so maybe CTU1 and TAC1 were on that other call as well.

Lol... strategic route selection back to quarters by 103 got them into the job A few relocations from this and the other job: SQ61 act 288 297 act 289 304 act 303 311 act 308 91 act ? 71 act ? 150 act 136 176 act 143 42 act 154 BN10 act 46

I think even if you're acting you take the car number

Unless assignments recently changed, the DAC shown in the video is the Chief of the Academy, which would be 15A not 4C

Seems pretty clear here and elsewhere that he was the Chief of EMS https://www.nyc.gov/site/fdny/news/ma0122/after-decades-service-new-yorkers-fire-commissioner-daniel-a-nigro-retirement#/0

Of note, ex-commissioner and COD Nigro was on a transition panel for Mandani and in some public comments recently seemed to suggest he would be making a recommendation to the Mayor on who the next FC would be. Bonsignore was on the executive staff when Nigro was FC, and he was the first-ever...

Based on the list above, all the HP engines are either in Lower Manhattan or Western Brooklyn such that they're proximate to Lower Manhattan. Someone can correct me but I think a HP/3-stage pump would really only be required on very tall buildings, and the regular engine would be able to handle...
