San Diego Navy Ship Fire 7/12/20

Hi guys,

A bit late asking the question, but I read that this 'only' remained at a 3rd Alarm. Is the rundown different in San Diego for alarms compared to other cities? I assumed an incident of this size would warrant a few more alarms.

Incidentally, stopped by San Diego last year on the way to Phoenix, took the river tour and all of the naval yards. Found it to be a beautiful city and the two SDFD stations we stopped by for photos were great guys.
It probably remained a 3rd for San Diego Fire Department but that likely didn't include the large Federal Fire response from the Navy and other military facilities in the area.

San Diego assigned 5 engines and 2 ladders per alarm.
National City, Coronado, and Chula Vista were also on the scene.
Federal FD had 10 engines and 2 ladders available to use (2 additional engines are on San Clemente Island)
San Diego was simultaneously working a major MVA response and a 1st alarm brush fire
