In NYC, each member assigned to a truck(Ladder Co.) is given an assignment at the start of each tour. One fire fighter(FF) is assigned Outside ventilation duties, another member is assigned as the Roofman. Other assignments include Ladder Company chauffeur, forcible entry F/F and finally The can man. The Can man carries a 6ft hook and a water can extinguisher 2 1/2 gallons. The officer on duty is in charge of these 5 fire fighters and they all have different assignments. How many other departments operate like this?
