Re: [californiadisasters] Forest Fire Kern Canyon Kern County "second alarm"

Yea in ways. The fact is I was hooked by them. Made my first box alarm for a house fire on 12/26/72. Dried up Christmas tree.

As for your description of "Alarms" very nicely put. I'd add that one of the problems from the old days was terms were used so loosely. Example Philly never had a General Alarm. Some Cities in NJ would have the General Alarm and if more help was needed they would go fir the second and third alarms from there.

Add to that the street lingo of we had a 3 bagger last night as in 3 rd alarm or the 5-11 was struck for that job 5th alarm on the 10-11 code for a fire.

Each are or the US is it's own world with this stuff.
