-=> Quoting Tom Walker to Joe Nicholson <=-
-> Do you know why Zone 5 is the only fire dispatch that
-> still uses the codes? Or why Heartland no longer uses
-> 4411, 4111, 4510, 4511, 4313, etc as unit indentifiers?
TW> Sorry, No I don't.
SDFD had a deputy chief who remember his arse from a hole
in the ground. Couldn't think if an 11 was an engine company
or a truck company, or if a 71 or 91 was a brush rig or an
ambulance.
He had SD drop the 10-codes and zone designators and convinced
Heartland to do the same. Rancho and Chula Vista (Zone 5)
still use them.
... 9-1-1 makes firefighters come.
