The fire departments effort could have been better but you rarely find an owner who is that nonchalant about their home burning.

A dumbass with an opinion and no facts at hand.

Look at the multiple alarm fire in Allentown and Bethlehem PA a few days ago - 2 engines on the 3rd alarm???? I wonder what their ISO rating is - 9?

Fire Department Chief: Joseph Kruzan Staff: Combination department with 45 total personnel. Stations: 3 Annual calls: 2,400; 1,700 are EMS Population: 32,000 this is a combi dept guys not a full paid service. Dont know about there but here our combi dept's have 3 paid personel on duty that cant do much interior firefighting till the second due gets to the scene. The second in unit usually comes from the next town away which means 20-25 min response time. all in all i would say these guys did a good job with what they had to work with.

Also the second truck lays supply line not the first. all i see wrong here is the guys werent packed out upon arival. This would have increased the response time into the house. Also would like to point out that no entry should be made until a RIT team is established....Hence waiting on the second due? anyone think maybe this is a volly dept who were at home with their familys? looks that way to me as the second truck there was a different color.

Unfortunately this is what the whole country is going through. Vote the assholes out of office that are cutting emergency services!!!

They missed some simple fire fighting principles. Laying out going into the fire, especially when you have something showing like that. Appears to be no leadership. Where did the pump operator go and why did it take so long for the first engine to get an established water supply. The second engine had water supply. A garage fire that well off IS going to have extension into the house, this fact looked completely ignored, again leadership. Glad I don't live there! Wow!
