From The Chief
Chief Michael Calderazzo
"Pierce was able to redesign the tank to allow the hosebed to almost sit on the frame rails, giving us the lowest possible hosebed height approximately 48 inches from the ground. All of our firefighters can easily reach the lines without the risk of a fall hazard."
