Parade Muster Point


A. Tai

Recommended Posts

Muster point for units assigned on parade duty: Including Fast Response Flycar 1 (EMS-F1), EMS Officer 1, (EMS O-1), Engine 1, Squad 1, various sheriff units. 

Parking the staff car up behind the command post, I grab my bag and zip my jacket up, walking around the rear of the new minivan that finally arrived into the staff pool. Maybe the ERT doesn't like dispatchers, because everything is yellow except what they let us drive. I walk into the command post and take a seat at the terminal, loading up the computer and getting ready to handle all resources and potential incidents that come up during this time. I won't touch a 911 call, but I'll be the sole dispatcher responsible for this route. It'll be a little different than normal for sure, other dispatchers sending me calls to process, but I'm up for the change.

"ERT, be advised, Fort Shannon Parade Command is established, and dispatch procedures are now active. Please advise all units on other frequencies to change channel for Special Operations."

"Confirming Parade Command established."

*I walk down to the bay and over to the squad. I put my gear in the back seat and get in starting it up. I look over making sure Noel is in and I pull out of the bay and head to the muster point for the standby*

'Just park it here Bruce' I say as he pulls in by the command post. 

"ERT, be advised Squad 1 is now at parade muster and will be available by radio for dispatch."

'I'll go check in to see where they want us.'I say, hopping out of the cab and making my way over to the command post for check in.

I park my big yellow Christmas Machine in the area for emergency service dignitaries, get out and check the attachments all over the truck. While the children go look around the lot, I make my way over to command, might as well see if there's anyone to chat with before the parade starts.

*I pull into the Parking area for emergency vehicles a block over from the parade route. I step out of the new black charger and put my Navy coat over my crisp white shirt and put my hat on. Its early so the organizers are still setting up. I walk over to the command post and grab a cup of coffee and the detail roster of SD personnel expected to show up. Leafing through it and write a few notes down about posts. I step out and see a few more deputies are mustering. I seem to be the only SD supervisor on scene.*

Watching a deputy run towards his unit, flick the lights on and take off blipping the siren, I wonder what's happening to require such a response. And from the looks of the muster lot, everyone is. I've got ten bucks that says angry motorist. It's not like we don't have a parade EVERY year. Idiots.Looking over my shoulder I see Captain Russo entering the CP, all dolled up and important looking. He must be in the parade as well.

"Captain, looks like your men are hard at work already"

Seeing Bruno arrive and walk up to us I fill him in on the details we want.

'Bruno, we want traffic running escort on the parade.  So that'll be 253 and 255.  253 will be leading, 255 trailing. 255 is out on a call right now so get him back now.  Spread out any K9 units at the start, middle, and end of the parade.  Let them know the dogs stay in the units.  You can decide who goes where.  As for the rest of patrol, same with K9, just spread them out in sections.'
