Does anyone happen to know when Ladder 12 went from an RMA to an aerialscope, and if any other companies sweet-talked the Job into getting one as well around the same time? I’m not sure if it was the same mistake made by L6’s Captain before Jay Jonas got the post and brought them back to a TDA...

I’ve been looking at the Job’s 10-codes for a while, and the codes for HazMat incidents are elusive to me. I know of 10-86 and 10-87 for foam ops, but the 10-80 doesn’t have anything conclusive from what I can find. As of now, I believe it ranges from No-Code to Code 2, but I’ve found older...

What are the positions of Battalion Chiefs in the FDNY at major incidents? I know that 1st due is IC, 2nd due goes in with the men, 4th due is RUL, and 5th is SO, but I don’t know where 3rd and 6th fits in (unless 6th due is just ARC), and I’m not sure if the planning section chief on the 4-4 is...
