3/12/2014 10-60 5th Alarm Manhattan Box 1406

All of the New York news stations has now stayed as per FDNY there are approx 25 injured but that seems very low to me considering what it looks like.......
 
That is odd capt., when did those news channels release those numbers?
NBC 4 has 74 injured  :o
Eyewitness has 69
Fox 5 has at least 60

FDNY might have the right number with around 25 and these news channels haven't updated yet?

Also, just wanna throw in here: Great job done by ALL: FDNY, NYPD, EMS, Emergency Gas Crews, etc... FDNY onscene in under 2 minutes, it doesn't get much quicker than that. This is one for the history books and future magazine (WNYF?) and article publications...Shows how routine the FD handled the situation, like another day... all that training comes in handy.

  And I think there was one more group that did a Great job, actually TWO Groups.

  1) The guys that posted info on here. If I wasn't listening on line, I could come back here and continue to follow through on the progress. In addition, there was a video and the audio posted that filled in all the blanks. Thanks guys. You did a great job too.

  2) And the other group that did a Great job are the "Forgotten Hero's" behind the scene. Those 911 and Fire Dispatchers. Certainly in the first few minutes, an overwhelming job done. I can only imagine what it was like for them. And for those fire dispatchers trying to piece together in a very short time, make the proper notifications. Notify the companies to respond, Getting updates. The FDNY/EMS dispatchers doing their part for a mass causality incident like this.

  As "FDNYSI" mentioned, the training just kicked in and everybody did their job. Whenever there is an incident like this in New York City, I am amazed at how well things are handled and coordinated. Somebody also mentioned on another thread about how New York City offers so much diversity within its city limits. I believe it was in the latest multiple in the Bronx where four frames were on fire in a very difficult area to get to. Or the brush fires, the multiple dwellings, row frames, the high rises. You name it, they got it. Or the water rescues, the MVAs and it goes on and on.

  The loss of life, the numerous injuries, and loss of personnel belongs, will no doubt take a huge toll on the unfortunate people who suffered through this. I'm just glad it wasn't worse.

  But I've been blessed. I've been fortunate enough to live within driving distance of such a unique city. Since about 18 years old, I have been able to watch for myself, these services in action in probably the busiest city in the world. I was able to learn by just watching them in action. I like to think that somewhere along the line, somebody benefitted from that learning experience. I will be turning 65 shortly. There's just no place else like it.

  Thanks for listening and thanks to all involved in this incident for doing such a great job.
 
At some point, can someone put together/post a top to bottom rundown of the units responding from the Box through the 5th?  I realize there is a on-going operation with units being special-called.  A rundown of the initial units would be gratefully appreciated down yonder!  Thanks! 8)

Thanks so much Firephish, I appreciate the efforts!  Many of the Brothers down here enjoy reading those!
 
I don't see E 47 in the mix; they are not that far away.  Has to be on the second or third.
 
Looking at the pictures and seeing the five gallon pails used to remove debris from the pile reminds of the days on the WTC pile
 
It surprises me that they did not do call backs to staff hazmat 2 or squad 800 in addition to rescue 6.  It just seemed to me that a lot of special units are being utilized in the hazmat / rescue side of the department.
