Very few department in my county (Kanawha, Co - WVa) have ladder companies. Charleston FD and a few volunteer department have ladders, but most are made up of volunteer departments that handle anything that comes in. I enjoy the life of the Engine Company but also like Rescue. Our area usually gets more rescue type calls than anything.

Michael,

I too have been the engine guy at heart although I do like rescue company work. I had the fortunate training by a past chief who was also a past chief of a ladder company who always instilled that the truck company should have real estate in front or back of the building. While I agree that the engine company is where it's at and of course we do get to see a ton of fire, we've been fortunate including myself in making a grab. While the grabs are by textbook the truck or rescue companies jobs we all take part in those instances. As far as die hard truckies I give them their credit I mean come on when we the engine crews are taking a beating on the inside there's nothing more beautiful than hearing a saw running on the roof or windows being broken properly. As the past chief stated and instilled in me we can add a length or two or thirty to hose but you can't stretch a ladder. Now I do know your post isn't bashing the ladder company guys and its to promote good cohesive engine and ladder company operations we as the engine guys or girls need to give credit to everyone on the team. Again not saying or thinking you're bashing them one bit just adding my two cents. Yes I do look forward to making everyone better especially us on the engines!

I've always been an engine guy at heart. I looked forward to the challenge of the spotting of the apparatus, the stretch of the hoseline, and the fight with the fire. Nothing against truck companies, but the engine is where I had an opportunity to understand the orchestration of the first alarm assignments and the coordination of companies operating at an incident. First due, second due, third due, it all came with a different set of responsibilities.

我将期待着评论。谢谢for the invitation Bobby.
