Fleet Friday FDNY SPECIAL UNIT COMPARTMENTS

[HalliganHook]

Hi-Risers also called McDermott Lights because they were (are?) made by McDermott Light & Signal Co in Queens.

Correct, all new Battalion and Division vehicles come equipped with McDermott Vertical Lightbars.

Hi-Risers are what Whelen calls their version of these lights, but these are not used by the FDNY.

Generally no.

Every ladder is different, there is a certain amount of equipment that has to be kept on all ladders. Then you go down to what special functions they may have. Such as Water Rescue, KO Curtain, SOC Support, Etc

If you have more room, the men will find additional tools to carry.

It’s a joke

Years ago we had one of these on the dashboard of the rig. When to tapped it - it said “that was easy”. After every job we would give it a tap 😄

Impressive rig and I appreciate the breakdown of the command board. Ive always wondered how that was setup as a non-firefighter.

Certainly a valuable piece of equipment to help keep tabs on all the units assigned. Thanks!
