Let's try this,

On the box= E151 E164 E168 L76 L84 B23
10-75 E167 L87 (Fast) D8 R5 Sq.1

That's my guess.

If all co's at qtrs it should be

168-164-151-167 84-76-87F

I can't find out, if a Full Request and Assignment of FOAM Units responded on this Box, I wouldn't think they would.
All Hands was given, can assume that E159 with Sat 5 was also on scene.

e-167 brought their foam rig. 159 was not needed. no special units other than foam 167.

JOR, I definitely know that this is not a 168 first due box.

E151/TL76 are definitely 1st Due to this location. I worked at that Target store and 151/76 were always the first units in there.

memory and Guitarman, I'm only going by what I see in front of me, remember alot of assignments were changed in SI as that was the first borough that was realigned with the BARB system.
Location of Box 4596 Veterans Road W & The West Shore Expressway. I'm not here to argue just giving what I see.

JOR, I am not in any way attempting to argue with you. I have respect for what you do here. I just wanted to stick my nose in by saying that 168 is not first due here as a general information point. Before I retired I worked in EMS Sta.23 which is quartered with E168, so that is how I know they're not first up for this box. No disrespect intended sir.

memory, I retired from FDNY Communications worked in Bklyn and was troublehunter for 11 yrs transferred to SI for my last two yrs and E151 was first due at that box in 2004 the yr I retired, when the BARB system came into existance the assignments changed and E168 is first due there now. If you're not sure ask Frank FD347 and we'll put this to rest.

JOR, believe me, you won't get an argument from me. As long as somebody gets there that's what counts. We have more important things to think about, like how the city wants to screw the retiree. (You and Me) Anyway, that is a hell of long run for 168 and not direct either. Good talking to you sir and hopefully we'll do it again soon.
