USMC MARINE ONE apparatus detail

[BoroCall]

I have done a few of the stand by for the POTUS over the past few years , The Rescue , a foam unit and the purple K unit are out on the pier , the two engines assigned with the foam and purple K units are out on Water street on a hydrant with supply lines stretch out on the pier .Tac-1 also but not OOS for the detail,  I don't ever recall a Truck being assigned .  No FDNY diver out on any of the fire boats , the NYPD Harbor & SCUBA units have that responsibility  , but the the Rescue on the pier has their SCUBA equipment if need be .  No special clearance needed to do the stand by, but the Secret Service does go though EVERY compartment of the three rigs out on the pier w a K-9 dog .  Once the Secret Service "clears" the three rigs they can't leave the pier . If the POTUS is just in town for the day the rigs stay put for the length of his stay.  Its a long day of hurry up and wait .  The actual time the POTUS is on the pier is probably less then 2 minutes .

Does the SS also to a check of each member??

Don?t they call that the Yankee white clearance

That really answered that thanks for the info

  Your welcome, with 2016 being an election year , Obama was in town very often for democratic fund raisers , often just for a few hours , so there's details where very frequent . Trump likes to go to Florida, so I'm sure the Brothers down south are getting lots of experience with them now ...lol.

Very interesting, while I knew about the Pope, there were several EMS chiefs that I delt with throughout the years, and each time the P or VP came in - the EMS chiefs would let me know about the detail - so that - I thought that meant a special detail preassigned.
Kinda strange that there would be tighter security for the Pope then for our own P or VP.

This may possibly be because EMS works details in coordination with the Secret Service and presidential medical staff as part of dignitary protection. Those members do receive background investigations. I believe there is more detail in the Operational Reference Guide.

Ok, thanks much - I never really asked, I just thought it extended to the entire detail.

Are the Rescues Rotated for this?

Have often seen pics of members of R1, R2 & some Sq Helmets in Group Pics with different POTUS over the years

Or is it like any normal "incident"? If R1 unavailable R2 does it as its lower Manhattan and if both R1 & R2 are unavailable R4 comes in?
