This from Campbell Holinger:
Fire Service, Incorporated just posted this picture of Squad 7 in their shop on their FB page …really does look like they gutted it!
Makes me wonder if Squad 7 won’t be getting one of the new units after all. I can’t imagine them putting this much money into this current squad if they anticipate using it front line for a year or two at the most.

This from Steve Redick:
Had a great opportunity to take in a dive incident at North & Thatcher yesterday. A car went over the guardrail and wound up in the middle of the Des Plaines River. The local FDs do not have any kind of dive team available so they utilized Chicago Squad 7 divers from O’Hare. It was interesting to observe the placement of the access ladder and the deployment of the divers. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a good look through the tree branches but you will get the idea. Some unusual rigs were on the scene as well … squad 7 was using an old engine as a spare. I believe that the boat came from the North Riverside FD, and was deployed upstream from my location. The search found no one and as of this writing they have retransmitted a dive box to search further. I am guessing that the owner of the vehicle has come up missing.
