Busy night tour for SI companies with 2nd and 3rd alarms.

Just about every SI company responded to at least one multiple. 

Maybe just 1 engine and 2 trucks (E 152, L 81, L 83) and the fireboat (Marine 9) might not have responded to either multiple - but maybe they did.  One multiple was North Shore and 1 was South Shore of SI.

Also, looks like several companies worked at both fires ( E 154, E 165, E 166, L 82, R 5).  Maybe all SI chiefs worked both fires.

Sure could've used a Staten Island based Squad so SQ-1 wouldn't have to spend so much time working on Staten Island and add mileage on their rig gettiing there.

In one of the pics from SILive that Mack uploaded you can see TL 15's bucket operating... Interesting to see them over there.

G Man - Sq 1 is also not available for their very large Brooklyn response area every time they take a 30 to 50 mile round trip run to SI.
