ResQguy I am sure you have heard this on thousands of times but urban legand is that DCFD has to have a tower ladder near the WH to rescue the President incase of a fire at the WH. I have seen that in print before many many many many years ago. When I first heard it I thought it was bunk.

Maybe so, but I haven't see it in print. I'll ask my resident historian Lt J.E. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
And why can't a rescue be effected via a 110 or 135?
