This is great! I would like to buy a DVD of this. My father was the102/209 and always talked about Brooklyn burning down, building up, burning down. I recognized many of the firefighters in the film. Please let me know if I can get a copy.
They say it's "too loud." What do you expect? It's a fire engine, it's supposed to warn people that there's an emergency but some elected officials think it echoes to loud between the tall buildings.
@FIREMARK1965 If you liked report from engine co. 82, you'll like "The Usual" by John Finucane. He worked on engine 85 around the same years as Dennis Smith. Also goes in depth about the death of Mike Carr.
Keep looking for my Dad. Was Lou of 6Truck in Manhattan late 60s early 70s and Capt of L155 in South Jamaica in latest early 80s. anyone with info let me know.

these old films are awesome, shows how far firefighting has come!
At 7.50 that's Rich Piccioto...later to be Batt Chief and one of the only survivors of the collapse of Tower One at the WTC on 9/11....
Firefighter Michael phinamor 9:38 9:39 Eventually became the captain of ladder 33 in the Bronx during the mid 1990s and 2000s
mack engines rubber coat pull up boots the best era of firefighting
No air packs, cancer and early death...yeah...really the best era of firefighting.

Good stuff. And you can pick out E.G. Marshall a mile away. I guess we now know what E. G. stands for - Everyone Goes!
So, here they are running with Q sirens, and yet in 2021 they're all but outlawed in the FDNY. WHAT GIVES?

Mike Carr fell from the rig if I recall it was also a false alarm. Tragic
