Fire was in Apt. 15G "George" on the 15th floor of an 18-story 150'x90' fireproof OMD.

Engine 88/Ladder 38 first due.

Interesting box assignment here. Years ago,  before there were L's 56 and 58 it was:

88 48 45. 38 37
79 46 75.  27
One of just a very few that L37 responded with E45 on the first alarm.

Under STARFIRE, L56 and 58 replaced 37.

BARB may now have 75/33 before 46/27? Maybe even 90/41 in the mix?
Dunno. I may be reading this wrong due to the 10-77 transmitted.

I think 79/37 still 3d due up the block at Southern Blvd and Fordham Rd and 46/27 at 187th and Crescent ave.

Thanks mac and g-man.

That war years card is really out of whack. L37 3d due, E79 8th due. (L56 was at E42 back then.) Surprising they would bring E82 all the way up and out of their busy area when other companies obviously closer.

My "years ago" usually refers to pre war years, when I was a kid. Local buffs knew that when L37 responded down Bedford Park Blvd without E79 and continued south down Southern Blvd it was a run below Fordham with E45. Took the horses a long time to recover.

Think it was this bldg- several years ago numerous members of L58 made rescues and received medals as a result.
