Did the two squads that were taken out of service add a new company, or were the manpower just spread around? I like your website...you do a great job and keep up the good work.

Helped to place the Four Truck Company's back in full regular service along with some other adjustments. For a long time the Truck Company's were cross staffed with some of the squads. In 1975 the WFD had Eight staffed Trucks by the early 2000's only four were left and they were cross-staffed. Quints and Squads lead to the demise of the Truck Company.
Now:
Truck 1 with Engine 1
Truck 2 with Engine 2
Truck 3 with Engine 9
Truck 4 with Engine 16
