[quote name='GA_Dave' post='304489' date='May 11 2009, 17:56 ']On my recent visit, I shot shop #G482 filling in for Squad 1A. Can anyone tell me which Squad Company this Spartan/E-One ran as when it was new? I shot Squad 5's Spartan/E-One back in 1995 and I wanted to know if I have just shot the same rig again. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shrug.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Yes Dave G482 was indeed the same rig. I did some research and G482 was one of two 1987 Spartan E/One Snorkels that were delivered that year and G482 was orginally assigned to Squad 1.
The following year (1988) Squad 5 did have a nearly identical apparatus delivered and put in service however in the fall of 1988 the Snorkel was totaled in a rollover accident. After the accident Squad 5 was reassigned the 1975 Hendrickson Pierce 55 foot Snorkel that remained assigned to Squad 5 until 1996 when Squad 1's 1987 E/One was reassigned to Squad 5 as Squad 1 had received a 1996 HME/Saulsbury single piece Heavy Rescue Van which was assigned to Squad 1 until mid 2000 when the 3 city located Squads had received new 2 piece Squad and Snorkel apparatus.
It was probably in 1996 and not 1995 when you had photographed Squad 5 using apparatus G482 which was orginally assigned to Squad 1.
