4th going on east 167th St btw Franklin Ave and Boston Rd along with an All Hands brush at Orchard Beach. Bronx in Fallback Step 2 at aprox 1300hrs.
 
Here's a real oddball "War Years" card for this box:

anyone know why there are so many cars responding? I've heard at least 5 cars responding. 1E 1G 12 23 30 I believe

Don't forget CAR 4 (Chief of Operations Robert Sweeney) who transmitted a 5 alarm @ 13:58
CAR 4..UC..14:07

Don't see E85 assigned on that card!
Yes, I also noticed that and both E92(reserve) & L44(taken off) don't respond. Penciled in after the card was issued: L17 relocated to L55 even though L29 covered L42 because L17 became a double co.
 
Why so many cars? Because it was a regular business day, during normal business hours ;) Any big city has the same deal.
 
For those interested who may not be aware......in the assignment card posted in reply # 2......the written in "A" with "2-1" under the A next to the box # in the upper left hand corner indicates that during the "Adaptive Response" hours only 2 ENGs & 1LAD would respond on a pull box.

anyone with a full rundown?

Was communicating with ExChief 84. Stated that he is working on it, should have it in a couple of days.  He said first and second alarm response, not what you would expect.  I guess because of the number of boxes out in da Bronx around that time
