Denver 4th Alarm 12/15/13

[Guest]

Outstanding work, Eric!

 

I see some 5" LDH in the photos - I was under the impression that DFD had resisted using 5" and still used all 3"?

 

Thanks everyone!  Roto-Ray, you're right... At DFD all Engine's carry 3 inch... but they have a few water supply engines across the city that carry 5 inch supply for big fires.  Those include E3, E5, E12, E27 & E28.  At least one 5" company is added to each greater alarm in the city.  Engine 3 is housed in Five Points, has the smallest first due district in the city and responds to the most multi-alarm jobs.  Their backboard says "The points is our home... the city is our district" and there is a lot of truth to that... all because of the 5"
