As the anniversary of the 23rd Street fire past on Saturday, a question came to mind. Would anyone out there know what type of pumper Engine 18 was running at that time? Thanks in advance. Ed B.

Do any of the good old boys with a head full of knowledge have a list of the alarm assignments for the Wonder Drug store fire 17 October 1966?   Thanks, all.
