This video shows the compartments of Quint 18. When we moved from a ladder to a quint it enhanced our capabilities but lost compartment space. These compartments are constantly being improved as all shifts work to make it better.
I've heard (and it's taken with a grain of salt) that AFD initially staffed quints with 5. To me, a quint is a wasteful expenditure or a sorry excuse for a separate engine & truck companies unless you staff it with 5-6 personnel. How are AFD quints staffed these days?
