Mike actually the history of this ladder truck is as follows. It was purchased and ran as unit 1006 (when the Beach still numbered their units
4 numbers) it was then sent to the oceanfront and ran as ladder 11 when they retired the 65 Seagrave mid-mount ladder) and when the tiller truck came in it was reassigned to kempsville and ran as Ladder 9 until it was retired.
