How many firefighters are in the TDR?

[TboneMan]

It seems as though there are alot of firefighters in the group. Let's here from you all.



I'm in a volunteer department covering 10 sqr miles, 2 stations, 3 engines, 1 water tender, 3 rescues.



12 years of service.

When I lived in Colorado I was on a volunteer dept. I was on for just over 3 years. We had 4 stations, engines, water tenders and rescues at all of them. Coal Creek Canyon VFD, we covered hwy 72, hwy 93 and the surrounding area which was in 3 different counties. 200+ calls a year. We did mutual aid with the surrounding depts. including Rocky Flats (nuke switch makers) they were Federally funded and had all the latest equip. and training. I miss the FD most about leaving Colo.

I am currently a Lieuey on a Paid-On-Call department.



Lemme see... Four Engines (three very active, one reserve), one ladder, three tankers (water tenders), one brush buggy, one attack truck, one rescue / medical truck, one squad car, and one ATV. I think that covers them all.



Our area is about 150 sq. miles and we get ~350 calls per year (medical and fire).

Not now, but I was a volunteer years ago.



I think there's a ton of FF on this board.
