You are correct...in fact the medic unit has apparently been moved to E26. The new H&L6 is still a quint. So the idea is they are 1st in they will assume 1st in engine company duties.

If they are first due will they assign another Truck Company to the alarm card. Why did they decide to keep pumps on the new Truck's? Now that there are Trucks in each district has Truck Company work improved or changed? Thanks for the help.





JUST FYI: No harm no foul: If a KCFD Truck Company arrives without a Pumper they still act as a Truck. It would have to be a very desperate situation for a KCFD Truck to pull a line, if their rig has a pump. In my department on my shift we act as a Truck even though our tower ladder is wet if we are first due. Now our other shifts they might act as an engine. It is really just situational and what you have on arrival. Although I miss the dry Trucks of yester year it made things very simple.



Stay Safe, Rick
