Quote:That makes sense, but Squad 1 is hard-staffed and the tiller-squad is cross-staffed by the Engine. Why not assign the new apparatus to the company that uses it daily? Actually, the USAR truck is at Station 1, along with Squad 1, already. I doubt USAR 1 would fit in many stations on the East side of the Willamette due to it's immense size. Maybe the thinking with the tiller-squad is that they can carry much more equipment than a regular squad-bodied apparatus, and it will still fit into the stations East of the Willamette. Keeps things spread out and more balanced. That's what I'm going with anyway
Thought I heard there were some tactical considerations to having a Squad on both sides of the Willamette, but that could be conjecture.
