Special Operation Unit - 56
Our Special Operations vehicle is a special design, semi-tractor trailer. This unit carries specialized equipment to handle heavy rescue, high angle rescue, extrication, confined space rescue, and hazardous material incidents.


There is a "research center" located in the rear of this vehicle which houses a computer used for hazardous material identification and control procedures. It carries many instruments for air monitoring and has a portable chemical lab. The research center also serves as a command post capable of communicating with neighboring agencies and federal organizations.

Boca Raton, FL. - October 2001- Boca Raton Fire-Rescue and the Federal Bureau of Investigation work together at the AMI building.
