Don't feel bad I live 3 short blocks ( 1 1/2 from staging area ) from the 5th and slept through it.
 
More great pictures on this web site. http://northeastfirephotos.smugmug.com/2009-Fire-Photos/Bronx5th/10156907_fivjK#P-1-12
 
Did anyone catch the relocations on this?  They must have brought companies from Manhattan and Queens.
 
94 went to 62, then went in on the 5th alarm. They relieved 88, who had to take 94's rig back to thier own quarters since theirs was hooked up supplying TL's. 94 dropped off 88's rig on their way to their own house later on Saturday morning.

I heard lots of other three digit companies roaming the Bronx Saturday morn but did not record them..
