Fire hose stations shall be marked in red letters and figures such as Fire Station No. "1", "2", "3", etc. The height of the letters and figures must be at least _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 2 inches. The United States Coast Guard regulations require that fire hose stations be marked in red letters and figures that are at least 2 inches in height. This ensures that the fire station markings are clearly visible and easily identifiable in an emergency situation. The other options, such as 1/2 inch, 1 inch, or 1-1/2 inches, would not meet the minimum height requirement set by the Coast Guard regulations.
