This box brings back memories of a Sunday afternoon 5th alarmer back in 1968 or '69 that I caught by the sight of smoke in the distance and seeing both Engine 41's racing east on 149th St. That fire consumed a whole block on Union, Tinton between 151 and 152 made up of mostly 2 story frames with a couple of 5 story tenements at the corners. I happen to have the assignment card:

41 isn't an engine there?

I was 1st due at that job last night.
71 was backing up 73
55 was 2nd due to 42
Im not sure if 83/29 were on another box. I would think 83/29 would be 2nd due. They may have been there. I just didnt see them.
