How can you have 1st alarm, and still need more resources?
May only need more LT's, 2.4/3.4's etc, but not another pump. Happens all the time in CFRS world.
Where can I find a FESA (or WARSUG) definition of 1st, 2nd ... alarm?

1st, 2nd Alarm etc, relates purely to the number of pumps at a job. You can have a 1st alarm scrubby with a pump, a few LT's and a 2.4, 7.2 etc.
depending where the Butler job was, 88 may be related to a request for vollie tanker for water supply if a hydrant wasnt nearby.

Check that "Disable BBCode" isn't ticked in your message composition window ...

BBCode is disabled in a couple of places (such as the active bush and structure fires threads) by admin setting, but the rest of the time it should be available and is probably a setting that's changed in your profile...
