I would like to see this practice spread to other engine and ladder companies throughout the city.

These companies are operated from either an engine or ladder company.

Ladder Company 102 was the first at the scene, arriving in 4 minutes 23 seconds, fire officials said.

The captain of the ladder company has a gray crew cut.

Moments later, a ladder company arrived on the scene and the rest of the family was rescued.

I could see the guys from the ladder company passing us as they began pulling on the ceiling.

But the search for victims could not wait, and the ladder company disappeared into the darkness.

The first engine and ladder companies arrived within thirty seconds of the call.

He said that there had been a trial period of about six months, during which time eight engine and ladder companies tested the pants.

Ladder Company 3 consists of at least 25 men.
