Actually, on the red/white & blue EMS units- [color="#FF0000"]RED[/color] numbers signified Medics, [color="#0000FF"]BLUE[/color] numbers were for Ambulances. Also, the medic units had "[color="#0000FF"]-^v^-[/color][color="#FF0000"]PARAMEDIC UNIT[/color][color="#0000FF"]-^v^-[/color]" on the sides.
Prior to that paint job, we had white ambos with a single red stripe, and the number on them would have a line "[color="#FF0000"]
30[/color]"under it, along with red neighborhood text "[color="#FF0000"]CAPITOL VIEW[/color]". Prior to that, we had orange striped ambos. They had a similar arrangement with orange numbers "[color="#FF8C00"]
21[/color]" And they were the first units to have neighborhoods on the sides "[color="#FF8C00"]ADAMS MORGAN[/color]" Prior to that, the orange striped medics had "[color="#0000FF"]MEDIC * UNIT[/color]" on the side, and that was it. Before that was stars & bars paint, those units didn't have the same number assigned to a different type of level of care- IE: A10, M22 & Rapid 28 were assigned to E30/T17.

and those stars and bars ambos had red and blue lights
