Was it more of a pressure issiue with the hydrants? or was it more like boosting the flow to the fire from the pumper at the hydrant.
If I recall correctly, it was a means of boosting the flow. LAFD did/does use the same process with their Task Force Concept that was started as a result of the 1965 Watts Riots.
Hope that helps,
