[quote name='jd2217' post='8511' date='Jul 13 2006, 09:36 ']does anyone have a picture of the funny looking helmets and also can anyone elaborate on the squad companies second peices that look like refurbed engines and tell us what their all about.[/quote]
At the time the Engines were modified into Squad's in the 93 and 94 they were meant to be used as Spare Squads,but in 1997 they became the "new"second Pieces for Squads 2 and 5 to help carry some of the equipment and to take some the weight off of the 1987/ Spartan E/One Squad (Snorkels) that those two company's were running with.Squad 1 at the time had just received an HME/Saulsbury Heavy Rescue style Squad and ran without a Snorkel until 2000 when all three of the Squads that are in the city proper received the current HME/Central States 2 piece Squads.
Before Squad 1 received the 1996 HME/Saulsbury they ran with a 1987 Spartan E/One Snorkel that was reassigned to Squad 5.
I'll try to answer more questions if you have them later. Firepost!
