Anyone have a list of ALL the different equipment IDs for LAFD that show on Pulsepoint??

SO different from what I'm used to here in San Diego.

Thanks, trying to understand everything they threw at this fire in Little Tokyo..

I figured as much, those units i listed are pretty much all the types of units that were there minus a couple. Feel free to ask if there is a specific unit that I didn't list.

OK, I know RA is Rescue Ambulance (called Medics here), but what are RM, JT, CL, HA, and PH??

I'd guess PI is our PIO, Public Information officer.

Thanks again, I really respect the work Firefighters do, and love listening to major incidents.

RM risk management officer
PH public health officer
CS crime scene Investigator (I believe)

I thought CL was Casualty Unit but I could be wrong. No idea what JT is.

Kearthfan101 stated CL was community liaison. PH might be physician? He/she is in charge of the EMS program. I am wondering if some of those abbreviations might be notifications only and not responding units.

JT - Joint Hazard Assessment Team (JHAT)
I believe HA is for the air ambulance designation/combined with the helicopter call sign in Pulsepoint when the medics are on the helo.
CP2 was attached, might be the chaplain
