    2009...... As per the "Mander"

    Yonkers Rescue 1 1300 runs

    Yonkers Squad 11 1800 runs. Like FDNY Rescue 3 we are also the citywide collapse rescue unit.

    Do the math.......... :)

    Here's the math:

    Mander will return where he belongs, sorry.

    The Collapse rig was "ours" but don't fit @ Sta-1.

    Squid picked up our old runs when city was split between us, extending SQ11's district outside of the Bronxville Fire Dept......

    Quality not quantity- we do like seeing the Squad fella's on relocation to Sta-1 when there's a job, specially if they drop a pot of DD's for our return B)

    First, what is in our top side compartments is mostly Haz Mat equip. Also tripod with leveling device to determine stability of a building. We do carry some miss tools. yes But most of our bed and butter tool are located on the lower portion of the rig. We carry from : Man in the machine: to grip hoist to struts. i n lower compartments. We have been side bye side with Rescue 3 from the Bronx and the only thing we do not have that they do is and outboard motor and raft. Our rig is for One officer and up too five FF Rescue in nyc is manned by One officer and six members.Any ???? you have for Rescue One in Yonkers can be sent to me .

    "If you search around the web, there are some great shots of this fire. I believe this went to 10 alarms."

    > These are the most common (and impressive) shots seen of this job, the link above is the "newest" ones up recently, with stories from those that were there.
