Still the bigger question remains where are Medic 213 & 214 assigned? Stations 3 and 4 have no medics and 3 has no room (why its slated for replacement) and 4 lost thiers to 6 some years back (1985 I believe). As proposed AFD was to place one daytime medic in service in the western city (6, 7, 8). I realize what has been seen but why assign two new arrivals to part time when the oldest front line is M207 a '02? What is with the 2-1-x numbering as that's how the BCs and chief's aid are numbered -BC 211, BC 212 Aide 215? There is no 3rd or 4th battalion so again what da? Obvioulsy I have put way too much mental energy to this <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/eek.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Ed, the peak demand unit is not a 24/7 unit so it doesn't need a station. I understand it is suppose to run from one of the west end stations when not on calls. They are expecting it to be running quite a bit. I need to check on this but I think one of the units is for daytime peak and one is for evening peak, just an assuptions. I will find out more next time I am in town.
