a nice irish coffee might be in good order

logistics and support.....5 MAN ENGINES!!! (can you hear me now)

i guess their favorite term "the scene is not safe" has broader implications

have the unions or staff chiefs informed the new administration of the need to keep the engine companies staffed at 5 men until conditions improve. if not...are the hazards of the snow covered/frozen hydrants going to be addressed. the new administration is in a position to prove whether or...

are the engines still being staffed with 5 men?

comparing the quality of calls of people trapped and the need to wait for pd or ems... a frustrating decision not to release 247

the streets in sunset park are narrow...as a backup LCC in 114 we were taught to place the inboard outrigger between two legally parked cars.. we would then pull the outboard outrigger out far enough so the turntable could turn...caution was always used

it has been mentioned here before that in situations like this car parked on a hydrant instead of taking the cars windows for the supply line a summons be issued and have the car towed by the nypd....so was the car towed by the nypd? still no deterent for parking on hydrants seems to be working

was wondering should it be 217 instead of 218
