"Air 3" was not a company, per se, but the name assigned to a 1993 Chevrolet Step Van. The $25,700 unit was a ready reserve to be used when Air 1 or Air 2's apparatus was out of service. It is still on the inventory. Photo taken March 3, 2004, Quarles and Olive St. NE.

Is that an actual incident or a training fire? Sure interesting to see fire in front of the Capital Building like that.

Warren Jenkins photo.
I saw it at Keplinger's in 1997. It appeared to be OOS.

Thanks to The Commish posting of Joel Wood's image of a DCFD Bruco squad wagon, it got me reminiscing. These were the only apparatus to have a PA system. More than once some evil prankster would chance by a squad's opened door on the fireground, key the microphone, and broadcast "Headquarters to Engine 9". The officer from Engine 9 would thing he's hearing a message on an apparatus radio (commonly left on Channel 1), switch his portable to Channel 1 and answer up. In this early 1980's photo, reserve S-604 is swapped for S-605 at Engine 9’s quarters, 1617 U St. NW. The rigs are 1966 and 1967 Ford N850/ Brucos. S-604 was the original apparatus of RS-4, organized in 1976. The 4 is visible between the hood and the door.

S-604 survived into the late 1980’s. It was repainted and used as a reserve squad, and eventually became the Hazmat Unit in 1984. It went back into reserve around 1988 and was disposed of shortly thereafter.

S-606, 1966 (?) Ford/Swab
February 1985 photograph shows the Ford/ Swab that formerly served as Rescue Squad 3 in service as Rescue Squad 4, in quarters at E-31.

In 1979 Rescue Squad 1 received a Ford L/ Swab with an18’ box. It was powered by a 6V71T Detroit Diesel and had the first mobile air cascade.
