20 & 26 are a ABC

20 & 26 are a ABC

I thought if the IC is an ABC, the 10-75 chief becomes IC on arrival. Did that change? Unless the Division arrived before B18

 

[scoobyd]

20 was an ABC. B18 was not. B26 could have been

ABC becomes fire sector upon arrival of 2nd BC. who should not be an ABC, unless out of sequence

Did E 89 miss it?

 

[Signal73]

Did E 89 miss it?

Yes

 

[GeoC]

20 & 26 are a ABC

Noticed there has been an uptick of ABC’s lately. Is the Department short of BC’s and is there a list?

 

[Fireman6711]

It’s summer time

 

[scoobyd]

All of the ranks are shorthanded. There is a BC list. BC's also have more accumulated comp time then ever before. So of course they are taking it. And generally that results in a Capt. being sent to ABC.

It's become pretty routine for BCs to be detailed from their assigned battalion to another, so that 2 ABCs will not "touch".

On the day of this fire- the BC from B20 was sent to B3 for the day, which is in a different division, to allow an ABC to work in B20.
