    10-75 Signal Revision

    If this is true, and I have no reason to doubt it, it definitely prompts a great discussion. If I can springboard off of TA176’s post above: the signal 10-75 was developed and implemented many decades ago, during a time which experienced greater staffing of 1-2 more members on each rig, a time...

    You are correct- and possibly Speutyn Dyval, and Riverdale as well depending on where the Adam and Boy units are. My point should be that common sense should prevail. But it won’t.

    FRV. Your point is well taken. I forgot about Aviation’s Air-Sea Rescue component. Definitely a great asset and a role NYPD should keep and maintain. But for reasons stated in my original post, the ESU REPs and Trucks should not be competing with FDNY for shore based rescue and body recovery...

    Ugly/Not Ugly

    Very well stated and so true. Unfortunately the commisioner and the AG do not care how things appear or how things are perceived by white men. They are going to attempt to push their agenda and challenge anyone to question them in a woke, liberal bastion known as NYC. But, great post.
