4/10/26 Queens 5th Alarm Box 4553

With so many Special Calls above the Fifth Alarm. How many alarms would this have been prior to the alarms stopping at the fifth.?

Yes I will say it!! Super Pumper on the road? They can draft from Flushing Bay or Mill Creek? Again just asking.

No where near Flushing Bay, at least 12 long blocks away on 20th Avenue. Mill Creek, isn't that in Brooklyn?

In a bygone era that is a first due box for 296 and third due for 272.

Stop already! Plenty of hydrants, plenty of tower ladders , all engines are now 2000gpm and inceasingly more frequent use of the Sattelites as above ground water mains with manifold. The Industrial High volume foam apparatus will be put to use when one of the fuel storage tanks ignites at LGA, JFK, 138th st in Bronx, SW Staten Island, or up by the Gowanus or on of the fuel pipelines is breached.

Is it me or is dere an extra ordinary amount of large warehouse fires across da country lately

Look at the name of the arsonist arrested in California Kimberly Clark warehouse fire last week. Iranian Sleeper cells ?

Another issue using the (knockoff) Super Pumper is the danger posed in & around the Fire bldg by flying bricks / objects propelled by the heavy Stream.... not just a question of "point & shoot".

Yes Memory but its a large source. I get the obstacles. also if You map this Satellite wise it shows Mill Creek not the Brooklyn one.
