This from John Tulipano:
Schaumburg had a box alarm at approximately 0700 yesterday (6-3-14) at 525 Estes in a one-story 75X100 commercial building, they had heavy fire and used 1-tower ladder, 1-ladder pipe, and several hand lines, the fire was well under control when I arrived and companies were doing some overhaul at the roof lines in the front of the building and beginning the investigation.

The hose going into the buggy looks to be connected to the exhaust pipe. Probably to re route the buggy exhaust away from the guys standing at the command post

I’ve never seen the hose off the tailpipe. Don’t want command to get gassed.

Haha, I’ve never seen that tent thing like the one that’s on the battalions buggy before. That’s awesome!
