Quote:Interesting to see Glendale used the wagon & pumper concept. This was something that was popular here in the Mid-Atlantic, where the term Wagon is still used quite a bit, even though the two-piece engine companies were phased out years ago.I've seen that when looking around on the web. It seems like the Wagon is just used so it flows witht he #'s on the rest of the fleet. EXP: E-11 W-11 R-11 T-11 instead of being like 11-?

I guess essentially what I'm asking is why isn't that a Navy rig if it's assigned to a Navy base? Thanks, Trav!

They just aren't called Navy Fire. It protects all the Navy assets around San Diego, including North Island NAS, San Diego Naval Base, Amphibious Base, Point Loma and San Clemente Island, IIRC.

This is one of two new Seagrave's PFD has placed into service the other went to Engine 31. Former Covina FD Truck 91 After LACoFD took over Fire and EMS in Covina, this rig was assigned to Station 147 in Lynwood briefly as Quint 147. Former Covina FD Engine 92 Later served as LACoFD Engine 152 after the consolidation. Former Covina FD Engine 93 Reassigned to LACoFD Engine 154.

Missing Engine 24 and Truck 21. The Truck was not accepted by the County and was sold. One odd fact about the former EMFD is that Engines 21& 22 were stationed together at FS 21 and Truck 21 and Support 22 were stationed at FS 22. My Collection Photos by Robert Navarro
Cool pics man...that support unit though...odd for sure.
