The "Rigs of the Unheralded Heroes" list it as a 1958 model. Gerty made some great rigs back in the day. Here is the MHU in it's white/red color scheme. Photo from my collection, original photographer unknown.

I am sure it would make awesome reading to find the old MOP's (is that right for Baltimore FD?) governing the use of some of the older specialized units from back in their glory days. Does anybody have access to them and a scanner? I'd love to read/hear more about operating policies and procedures for such apparatus.
