==Usage==
This infobox is designed to suit the wide variation in terminology between countries and between individual fire services. There is an extensive list of pre-named parameters for leadership and apparatus, which are suited to predominantly North American terminology, but generic parameters which can be adapted for individual requirements are also available. A blank version of the template using each style is available below.

Note the following:
*where named and generic parameters are mixed in a section, the generic parameters will follow the named paramters in the displayed infobox;
*the display order of pre-named parameters cannot be altered, and generic parameters will display in numerical order;
*wikilinks may be used in generic _description parameters as desired.
