I believe 79/37 get in there before 88/38 and E42. Maybe Briggs ave out elsewhere? That was, however,  the 2d alarm assignment as you posted it that I heard.

E88 working elsewhere at Box 3165

G-man, thanks for the rundown. Two questions: Where's L37 and you sure that wasn't L59 and not L39 going in as the extra truck?
Anybody who ever lived in Da Bronx prior to 1980 went to the Paradise theater. Rated one of the most beautiful in the world in some survey. If the fire was in the basement and the roof perhaps a lot of the statues, etc. that I believe were hidden behind false walls were saved. Don't know about the starlit ceiling though if the roof went.

That's the rundown I got from Exchief who is human so it could've been L59. BTW, L39 going on anything above an All Hands was once unheard of. They used to be "untouchable sacred cows"
