So all the stand alone Engine Co.'s are staffed with 3. If they have an Aid Unit in house then 2 of them jump on the Aid Unit if it catches a run leaving 1 behind on the engine? If this is correct, is the Engine Co. out of service until the return of the Aid Unit?



Engine 1 is the exception to this and has dedicated 3 person staffing with Aid 1 and Aid 3 having 2 dedicated personnel?



LF3 runs a pumper and TDA with 4 personnel? They function as either an engine or truck depending on the circumstance.



LF7 runs a pumper and TDA with 5 personnel? They function as either an engine or truck depending on the circumstance.



What are their alarm assignments?



Thanks for all the great information.
