    Legal Authority to Call Incident Command

    So when you show up om scene first are you not aloud to call for additional resources or cancel incoming units? that would be a incident command decision. Is this a "mother may I" thing or what? Is he saying that you cant just say to dispatch that your assuming command? sounds like a control issue.
