Chicago Fire Department Squad 5 Response

[@marloostanfield1036]

The only thing with the 2nd piece squad they would still need a engine 2 feed them water now if it had a pump on that truck it would make sence 4 it being a sqaud.But all it is is a mini rescue truck & a mini ladder truck.

[@alarmoffice711]

Dept. was much bigger in the early days- 129 Engines, now 96. Companies & houses get consolidated, why change the numbers, E42 & T3 used to have separate houses, now they're together, why change the #s. Ambulances came along much later #s 1-60 ALS, 80-93 BLS

are squads very busy in chicago? i only ask this because i know that they are only called out to certain calls and those calls aren't very often. or are they? i don know much about chicagos fire dept.

[@cfd11236]

Wedding Films squads respond to working fires, extra alarms, pin-in accidents, hazmats, water rescues, airplane distress calls, confined space rescues, and technical rescues. Squad 5 is in the ghetto of Chicago and is very busy. In The 80's, Squad 5 was the busiest firefighting company in the U.S.

[@TomManning-cs4el]

Well yes it's because the rest of CFD isn't really good firefighter

[@MGRailVideos]

Are you a firefighter or spectator?

[@ZGriffithEMT]

[@Finnmarken91]

[@ArvellDorseyJr]

You rode with Squad Co. 5, Lucky!

[@redsoxs61]

why doest Chicago use q2b?

[@walleyeking23]

I would pay to ride along. I wish they would let the regular folks do this kind of thing again. I would sign every release in the book.

[@bcfd2011]

I'm on a squad in a volunteer dept. our squad is nice but Vfd squads make ours look small

[@stvfd1805]

nothing pisses you off more when people dont get out of the way

[@alarmoffice711]

@1:03 close call w/ the snorkel

[@TheFmmc]

I miss the days of working on SS-1 out of Orleans St. Former Commish Hoff was a member of SS-1 when I was there and it was good to see him a few years back. Great to see the real Squad concept has remained in Chicago. However difficult, change is good too....except for 1A being the Snorkel? Too bad the Flying Manpower Squads are gone to but CFD remains the greatest!

[@walleyeking23]

@jazzbutterworth Chicago has tightened the reins ever since Truck 51 rolled and killed a Fireman.

[@mmaramm]

[@robertross804]

[@chrispartlow4533]

MultiMonster69 Just don't understand how it's part of the squad it's a mini snorkel & that's it i could c if it was a quint snorkel but it's just a mini snorkel nothing speical.

[@michaelmcmeel914]

@@chrispartlow4533 They had one piece snorkel rigs in the 1990's but the snorkel rigs couldn't handle the weight of the tools so they started running tool box and snorkel and still do to this day.
