Speaking on "Suburban Firefighting," Chief Jim Silvernail of the City of Kirkwood, Missouri Fire Dept, captivated the audience of approximately 400 firefighters, at yesterday's 17th Annual Lt. Andy Fredericks.
Our thanks to all those firefighters who attended and especially those who regularly support our seminar, as well as Chief Silvernail for a great presentation.
Proceeds of each seminar are given to four designated charities: the Lt. Andy Fredericks Scholarship Fund, the Lt. Tyler Rush Scholarship Fund, the New York State Firemen's Home and Burncare Everywhere.
Andy's company, FDNY Squad Co. 18, was on hand, as always, to sell T-shirts and support the cause.
Also in attendance was FDNY Battalion 19, Engine Co. 75 and Ladder Co. 33 to sell memorial T-shirts for Deputy Chief Michael Fahy, recently killed in the line of duty; proceeds going to Chief Fahy's family.
Great job done by all!!!
From the Elmsford Chiefs and the Seminar Committee....

We have been using Swissphone for the past 6-8 years and are very happy with them.
They are exceptionally reliable with basically no maintenance issues.Unfortunately they don't make a low band pager.

How many EMS crews carry gas detection equipment?
We carry C/O meters on our EMS jump bags. They are worth their weight in gold!!!

If I am not mistaken, Elmsford does expand the normal parameters of the numbering system.
Elmsford FD designations:
Dept = 211
2110 = Deputy Chief
2111 = Chief
2112 = 1st Asst. Chief
2113 = 2nd Asst. Chief
2114 = Captain, Ladder Co.
2115 = Captain, Engine Co.
2116 = 1st. Lieut, Ladder Co.
2117 = 1st. Lieut, Engine Co.
2118 = 2nd. Lieut, Ladder Co.
2119 = 2nd. Lieut, Engine Co.
58-12 = EMS Lieut, Ladder Co.
58-13 = EMS Lieut, Engine Co.

Who activates the "under control 3" 60-control? Tarrytown and Elmsford use this code for under control?
Elmsford PD is our primary dispatch. 60-Control is our secondary dispatch.
The PD desk officer sounds the recall "3" which really isn't used as often as it was in the past.
Recall "3" on the horn indicates that the incident is complete and all units are back in service.
Obviously a throw back to the pre-radio days. The chief could open a box and use the morse key to sound it.
Tarrytown did operate in the same manner. I'm not sure if they still do.
-
I came across a listing of horn codes for Tarrytown FD. Question... were these locations former street box locations, or are they just intersection codes. Does Tarrytown still use these signals?
Also saw an "all clear" code..what was that used for? Was that a "throw back" from the civil defense siren days for an air raid siren test with an all clear?
While no longer having actual pull boxes, Tarrytown and Elmsford still use audible signal codes (box numbers) for intersections and some specific locations like schools, hotels, etc.
Elmsford does have two working pull boxes, one on each of our two firehouses.
One audible round of 3 indicates that the call is complete and units are back in service.
