Very true the city could definitely use another Rescue truck as many times there are multiple mutual aid rescues from other communities in the city. The numbers are probably more like 75% or higher as they are nationally , a Rescue with only 2 people is never dispatched alone hence why an engine goes for the extra man power that many medical emergencies require. Plus the closest rescue available may be coming from across the city or even a Providence hospital so it only makes sense to send a local engine Or ladder company . Maybe if the money generated by the rescue runs went back into the FD budget like in other cities instead of the city general fund some people would stop complaining about working men and women of the WFD . By the way it’s in the millions.
