How Many Officers Do You Have In Your Department

I came from a large department in New York
where we had 300 plus members. We also had
seven companies within the department. Each
company had a Captain & 2 lieutenants. The
department had as follows:
4- Chiefs
7- Captains
14-Lieutenants

In the small department i'm serving with here
in South Carolina, has approximatly 40 members.
We have as follows:
3- Chiefs
3- Captains
4- Lieutenants

So how many officers dose your department have ????

County wide...I don't know for sure.

I do know there is a Fire Coordinator, 2 Operations Chiefs, a Battalion Chief, a Fire Marshall, a Training Chief, a Fire Inspector, a Fire Prevention Officer, a Logistics Officer, a Breathing Air Technician and 21 shift Captains for a total of 31 career officer positions. I think the last figure I heard was between 250 to 300 active members.

At my Station there's 3 shift Captains, a Volunteer Captain, and a Volunteer Lieutenant for a total of 5 officers for 20 people.

Thanks Dave, How can you hold a discussion, if you don't reply. Jake just has a bug up his ass. I also see that he just enjoys breaking peoples balls, as I have noticed on other discussions.
Not a big deal, once an ass, always an ass.
