Excerpt from video description on YouTube:
Engine Company 421 was first on the scene, followed by Tally-Ho 423, and Truck Company’s 428. Engine Company took their first line to the front of the buses to cool the exposure and begin the attack of the intense fire consuming the buses. Two of the buses were totally engulfed while the third bus was also burning. A second and a third hose line was taken from Engine 421 by members of that company and Tally-Ho.
The Malverne School District lost three new school buses and the use of its portable classrooms on Sunday morning after a fire broke out and engulfed the recently purchased buses, which were in the parking lot of the Davison Avenue Intermediate School in Lynbrook.
Firefighters arrived at the school, at 49 Davison Ave., at 4:17 a.m. to find two buses in flames and third beginning to burn. Nearby portable classrooms, used for music classes, sustained heavy exterior damage and interior smoke damage, according to Superintendent Dr. James Hunderfund.

Look at all the firemen breathing in all that smoke.
Look at all the firemen wearing SCBA packs but no masks.
How dumb.
Glad to see they have a mandatory tank rule, they all have them on thier backs, maybe the Chief isn’t done writing and hasn’t gotten to the part where you put the mask on your face. with all the videos we see every day with this happening, why don’t some get the word?
