Niles IL response levels

https://www.vniles.com/799/Fire-Department-Overview

Code 3 - 2 eng - 1 truck - 2 ambulances - 1 chief

Code 4 - 4 eng - 2 trucks - 2 ambs - 1 squad (heavy rescue) - 2 ambs - 2 chiefs

Code 4 = still alarm - not sure if that is right

MABAS box alarms are similar to this Code 4 alarm - not sure how they mesh

maybe the hierarchy is - code 3 - code 4 - mabas still - mabas box -
mabas 2nd - mabas 3rd - mabas 4th - etc

I think Niles FD is dispatched by RED Center - maybe that is who
imposes the Code 3 and Code 4 terminology / procedure / policy
