6/23/08 - House Fire

Monday 6/23/08, my crew and I responded to address listed on news article for a lightning strike and house fire. As the news reported we got quick and saved the house from burning down. It was a quick attack and we all did a great job - even one our new probies got his cherry popped (his first fire) and actually got to be on the lead line in. He is the one in the picture on the roof (at top)

As for me - I was the lead engine driver that day and really did not get to do any "cool stuff" - I just got to drive fast, get everybody there, and pump the truck. An important job but not so fun like the other guys. It was a good save of the house because we prevented it from spreading to the house from the garage.

Oh ya - did you notice the news reported we were there in 1min - I drive fast - - - ha ha ha

Good Day @ Work
