Welcome! What organization are you with in Arkansas?
IMO, 4-way hazards generally do the trick for the type of use that you will be getting.

1) A few years ago I decided the only thing that would work as a mag mount beacon for an SUV with crossbars, was a Federal Model 100 with homemade magnet mount that let it sit up high enough to be seen. If you're looking for something to use with the engine off, this is a Whelen 1200 that would do the same thing:
2) If you're a firefighter why aren't you using red/clear permitted for your POV by your state? That would give you the protection of the "move over" law when you're "working an MVA" as you mentioned.

I don't know about where you are but we are not allowed to take personal vehicles to roadway calls, especially MVAs. That is the best place to get hit - people slow down to stare and slam into you and each other.
However, if you are on the fire department, then install red/white HAW leds.
