Sadly no SA Firey only myself and the 1st Lieutenant answered the pager call therefore we rolled with just a crew of 2 but were met at the school gates by our brigade admin officer who happened to be at the school getting the school bus ready to take the out of town students home

Turns out Chubb was doing fire extinguisher and alarm testing at the school earlier today and didnt reset the kindergarten fire alarm to standby mode after testing resulting in the false alarm occuring  :|

Going back to your question of which i've already answered at the top SA Firey strangely we have so many active volunteers who would drop their tools at this time of day to respond to a fire call but lately the last few calls Kalangadoo has been paged to we have only managed to man our appliance with 2 or 3 members

With them being the regulars such as myself and the brigade captain  :-(

Yeah thats right myself and the 1st lieutenant responded to the scene which in a way is quite concerning considering how you at least need a crew of 3 or 4 for a private alarm but seeing as how it was just a false alarm there wasnt much cause for concern  :|

As previously stated.. only have ourselves as brigades to blame for this. All brigades without response data in BOMs receive ALERTS calls prior to dispatch querying which resources they require.
