Geocache Description:

Not at given location that is why it is a puzzle

This is the fifth in a series about the Seattle Fire Department. In Seattle we have 33 Engine Companies (Hose and water) and 12 Ladder Companies (ladders and tool, no water). Several (BLS) Basic life support aid Cars and several ALS ( Advanced life support )Medic Units, and six Battalion or Deputy Chiefs. This is a puzzle on the BLS and ALS and Battalion Chiefs. These units are stationed at Stations all over the city. The Company numbers do not correlate with the station numbers and are not arranged by location in the city. This is true for all units in the city. N 47° 6.2A A' W122° 45.7B B I will make this a lot easier A equals the number of the Ladder Co assigned to the Station that Medic 31 runs out of ( Note this was my first assignment in 1969. Use the number twice (i.e. 3 3) B equals the Number of the Ladder Co that Aid 14 runs out of. When I joined in 1969 it was the training Station and had several units run out of it. It is now the quarters for Tecnichial Rescue units. Congrats for Redbone to be FTF.
