    FDNY - TWO STAFF APPOINTMENTS - CHIEF OF EMS & CHIEF OF STAFF

    I would still like to know how Kavanaugh can take a once NYPD "employee," now a civilian - and give him the title of "CHIEF"?? To me, that only cheapens the word.

    3/5/23 Bronx 5th Alarm Box 4794

    I believe you are correct regarding the old Computer Assisted Dispatch System. Unless I'm mistaken, and if there is a current member of FDNY Communications on this site that can correct me, iF you go to a monitor in the Bronx PSAC, the computer will bring up a box alarm assignment on a blue...

    If these seven (7) engine companies and 3 trucks were requested after the request for a 5th alarm, that's the equivalent of a SEVENTH.

    2/21/23 Brooklyn 4th Alarm Box 235

    Were there any indications that the 1 story was an open extension of the 3 story, or could the wall between have been illegally breached? The color and intensity of the smoke from the 3 story indicated a heavy fire load for a vacant building. Also saw a rescue medic wearing a hood and an SCBA...

    Old Marine Unit Docked in Manhattan

    This is the "Smith Class" of 106 ft. fireboats (along with [not shown] the Dr. Harry M.Archer, Senator Robert Wagner and the H.Silvia A.H.G. Wilkes) That last boat in the rear right is the John McKean.

    Old Marine Unit Docked in Manhattan

    Definitely not the Smith Class of boats, and the McKeon had a water tower similar to the one formerly on the original Firefighter. Also, if this is a recent photo, it couldn't be the Harvey either, since it was repainted in that hideous "camo" design. This is the Harvey today. (ugh!)
