| On the morning of March 5, 2008 @ 0555hrs Company 3 Fire was dispatched to a structure fire. T503 and E503B were the first to arrive on scene with heavy fire and smoke showing from all sides of the trailer home. As E503B dropped their line at the hydrant for the next pumper in, T503's crew prepared to make a primary search once the hoses were in place. AC503 arrived on scene and assumed Fuller Heights Rd. command. E517B arrived on scene and picked up E503B supply line at the hydrant. T531 assisted T503 with primary and secondary search while R510 secured utilities and E510 became the RIT crew. M503 and A517 arrived to set up rehab. PWCPD assisted with traffic control. BC503 arrived on scene to assume command from AC503 and was assisted by HMO502 and SF505. The fire was under control and knocked down in a sufficient amount of time. Command requested power/water companies for utilities. And the on-duty Fire Marshall's were requested also. Command placed all additional units in service, and held E503B, E517B, T503 for salvage and overhaul and to assist FM518 and FM523. Remaining units cleared fire ground by 0804hrs. This was a joint effort between PWC volunteers and career. |
