In this case it is the Rac(rehab) manager

You did, they were acting 102 and special called FAST truck (relief) above 5th alm

you're right, looking at the ann st 10-60 a few months ago 2nd squad was assigned on the major., I just thought that was dispatcher discretion for that incident.

It seems like it was transmitted either with or after the request for major matrix, as indicated by the 2nd squad on 2nd alm. 2nd squad gets assigned on the 10-60 not the major matrix.

Most time hazmat logistics, its a pickup truck. I guess it depends on how many has to be picked up.

That 8th alarm was the last fire to go above 5th alarm, that must have been the game changer??? FDNY changes very often. A couple weeks, months or years from now might see 6th 7th and above again, who knows.

This change was made sometime after the 8th alarm in queens in April 2021, as that is the last 5th alarm+++ fire I have in my notes.

Your curiosity is as good as mines, maybe one of the other fellas on here knows why. It is my understanding that 5th alarm was always officially supposed to be the highest alarm

everything above 5th is a special call, no alarms above 5th anymore

everything above 5th is a special call, no alarms above 5th anymore

I believe you are correct I forgot they got the extra engine on 2nd. Looks like they got the balance of 3rd alm 3 engine no trucks

Excellent rundown as usual. E71 not on 3rd alm though, they went 10-99 on a ems run (box 2307) 5 minutes after 3rd alm transmitted. More than likely a relocating/acting engine instead. Listening to both manhattan & bronx it was 10-33 central. Definitely tough feeling in some of the gaps. Once...

After listening to the audio, I'm thinking that it could have been an acting engine assigned while responding to relocation of the first alarm units.

2 additional ladder 1 additional battalion above normal 10-76, if they attached the mega highrise assignment to this

maybe election day, just my guess
