Water Rescue Response: Coleman and Autumn - San Jose, CA 

Yeah, it was my first time seeing that as well!

Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah, I’m actually surprised that I was on this. The first rescue call happened while I was at work, but I did not expect the second rescue call to happen!

You can catch USAR A and B practically every day. They even get dispatched to medical calls. When they’re not on rescue calls, they act as a truck company and do truck work while on structure fires. USAR D and other components of the USAR Task Force however don’t come out all that often.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Maybe one day.

Thanks! And to respond to your other comment, I’ll probably head back up there eventually.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks! They requested them for the use of their drone that they carry on board to look for the best access on where to launch the rescue boats and to see where victims were located as the area is surrounded by trees.

@@Tr35uckfanProductions AH I see, that makes sense then; Thanks for the explanation. I made the experience that water rescue calls count to the sort of scnearios with the greatest difference from place to place (concerning how many and which emergency vehicles are responding)

Yeah, I was thrown off when I saw AMR on the EMS Supervisor Vehicle.

AMR bought Rural Metro Ambulance that's why it says AMR

Yes it is.

They carry a drone on board, which they use to fly over the main part of the incident to see from above or to get it close up to any hazardous materials while crews are remaining at a safe distance. In this case, they used the drones to help the USAR crews find the best access and best spot to deploy the rescue boat.

Truck 1 was on the first rescue call and they were requested by the Battalion Chief to go grab the utility vehicle before they were redirected to the 2nd rescue call. The truck was out of service while their crew was staffing the utility vehicle, which was used to tow the rescue boat. USAR A, B, and D all came from Station 34. To reply to your other comment, HIT A is based at Station 29.

That was the second call, yes. The first one was for a vehicle that was in the same river about a quarter mile north of this location.

I remember that call now that you speak of it. That car was abandoned, yes?@@Tr35uckfanProductions

Yes, and I believe I’m already following you! My account name is the same name as this channel.
