Hanscom now has 2 full blown FDs apparently - Massachusetts

Hanscom Airport in Bedford Mass now has a USAF FD and a MassPort FD

the 2 stations might be only 500 feet apart

back in the old days it was - Hanscom FD + Massport EZ9 pickup truck
with maybe 1 guy + Lincoln E5 at the dump on Mill St manned by vols

I cant really imagine seeing them continue staffing 20 firefighters
there - maybe 6 total - it almost seems like a prelude to the closure
of the Hanscom AFB FD or a closure of the entire AFB
