[@CobraEmergency]

Seems like you had a great day with C shift, got loads of runs? How long were you there? Awesome video I love seeing the tiller turn up ahead.

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

we got a nice amount of calls while i was there. i was there for 12 hours, 7AM to 7PM

[@CobraEmergency]

Oh okay quite a long time then! Still seemed like a good day.

[@alexandernunez109]

Awesome

[@90210FireBuff]

Do you know what happened to their frontline? And do you know how many Simon Duplex and Seagrave tillers are left in the fleet? Great video btw!

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

i'm not sure on either but i'll try to get the answers to your questions. thanks bud

[@90210FireBuff]

jimmyjpeo Great minds think alike lol

[@rchurch79]

What does the light force do?

[@douglasnorby4006]

Riding in the rain..

[@jamesreed9110]

was that Engineer Gonzalez?

[@mattzarphotovideo-4258]

So quick question why would they send the truck on a medical call don’t engines and squads handle medical?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

170’s only has a truck & engine and since it’s in light force configuration, both go to everything no matter how small.

[@peanut111shorty]

Talk about a tight squeeze

[@ericanfuso9826]

I would like to salute all the fire departments in Lehigh and North Hampton without them we would not we will not be here without them die stay safe and God bless

[@christophersantana891]

sweet, 170's be busy now a days lol.

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

we didn't get an incredible amount of calls but i definitely was surprised at the amount we did get. thanks for watching

[@dubzytse710]

Do they have any tf like lafd?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

there's two stations that have light forces but also have separate engine companies (i.e. LF8 & E8, LF82 & E82) but on the radio, they typically don't get called "Task Force" like LA City does unless it's a special task force (USAR TF, HazMat TF, & RAC TF)

[@bfass996]

LACoFD runs an engine and truck on a medical call?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

only on stations that have light forces (8, 82, 127, 170, & 185).

[@jamesreed9110]

I bet that was Engineer Ross driving the truck?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

negative, he was actually leaving the station when i was getting there that morning.

[@dubzytse710]

Guessin 170 has no sqaud?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

no squad at 170's, LF only

[@Kylehikes47]

nothing against the dept in any way, respect all of them very much... just curious as to why they send so many units for 1 medical?

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

a light force is considered one unit. it looks like a lot but a light force is only staffed with 5 sometimes 6 guys which is only 1 more than your average engine. (:

[@Kylehikes47]

gotcha makes complete sense...Thanks for the feedback!

[@FB1ResponseVideos]

no problems, it's a frequently asked question (:

[@k9spjack]

To justify their budget at the end of the year.
