Quote:I have a few questions: What units did the quints replace? engine's or engines/trucks. Where is the Bronto assigned? How many fireboats do they have?
What I was told by a reliable member of the MFD, Q-7, replaced the Engine and Truck (13), Q-28 replaced the Engine and Truck (6), Q-34 replace their engine, Q-37 replaced their engine. The Bronco, Ex T-13 is now Truck 5 at FS 8. A zodiac at FS 37 and a zumro at FS 27 and the Training Center.
A count of now 56 Engine Co's down form 59 and 21 Truck Co's down from 30. Budget cuts may get more.
