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 suspect for the reasons stated above, i.e. some of their specialized equipment.

I'm not very familiar with the FDNY yet, so that's my question. In NYC there are also some kind of keywords that determine which units drive and which don't Or does it always depend on the situation. I have read a few old reports from the website here where it was still the case that at the beginning only one engine, one ladder and one BC were alerted or is it like now, for example, here with us, where the fire dispatchers alert directly more on some operations than on other operations where you are not yet sure what exactly is now
