Great pics of that fire. I lived on Ridge Ave then and was able to look down from my house up on the hill down on to nepperhan. Does anyone have the M/A rundown on this job? I never saw so many units at a Yonkers fire in my life. If I am correct, I think I remember seeing a rig from NJ.

Who communications office does the FDNY report to when they are M/A in Yonkers, or in another other city they go into to help in Westchester?

[Mac8146 61]

Usually FDNY maintains contact with the Bronx Dispatchers and has a liason from the agency requesting mutual aid with them to advise on what they need us to do. A Battalion Chief from FDNY is assigned and will give the Bronx progress reports on units operations.
