Don't worry if the driver was sitting in it he would have 4 feet with all the reflections so it would all work out! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hysterical.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Hysterical' />

Well they already have a fleet of KME engines, tillers and other apparatus. Make's life easy for the guys at the shops. Possible low bid too.
People complaining about spam in the spam mail box... Huh, what'll they think of next?

Engine 116 getting ready to back into quarters. FS 116 is badly cramped the truck has its own bay and the engine has to park behind the squad. When this photo was taken squad 116 was in quarters a crew member of Engine 116 had to get out and move the squad so the engine could back in. The Home Depot Center used for soccer games is right across the street the builders offerd to include space for a new Fire Station but department brass took so long the devloper pulled the offer off the table.

What is the staffing on the Rescue Squads. Is it usually 2? Or did they increase the staffing?

Any idea how many feet in the rear preconnect? Not the auto line, but the one in the bed.



Nice shot.

All LA County Rescue Squads are manned with two Firefighter\ Paramedics 24/7 all of except Squads 51 and 88 are four door squads, Squads 51 & 88 are only two door squads due to space issues at those houses.

Nice pic of Engine 124's house. We had a friendly bet of T-shirts on the Yankees/Angels playoffs, and I just received 25 T-shirts. VERY, VERY, nice shirts from the Brothers.



Waiting on the Philadelphia shirts now... <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' /> <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' /> <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />





Stay safe, Brothers.
Kill 'em all, let Allah sort 'em out. NEVER forget 9/11/01 WTC, Pentagon, Pa. Avenge the acts with NO mercy.

Thanks to ALL the Brothers who were there 9/11/01 and afterwards. Words can never say what appreciation we have for you all.
