Re: Ander's House Fire
(( Raven, I told him to grab a 1 1/2" line seeing as how we are limited on water supply for the moment, more use rather than a blast of water for a short time u can delay it even a 1/2" wopuld make a difference and a garden hose is a 3/4" line. It was my call for that not his. ))

Re: Ander's House Fire
*I run up to the pump and set the pressure at 95 PSI hoping it will last us until we get a tender up here.
"P11 charging line one."
I pull out the lever and watch the line fill.
"P11 charging line two"
I pull line two's lever and watch it fill. I set the supply to the suction lines and hold the tank incase we need it.

"Cressler, Mitch, give me an update on how you guys are doing with the suppression."
*I take another SCBA out as well as the RIT bag. I then go over to the drivers' side and switch the scene lights on except the front flood lights. I walk up to the scene and look around making sure everything I could see is going well. I then walk over to Jack.*
'Hey, you doing alright? I see you're not going in.'

"Alright, how about this, Mitch, you're going to be with the ladder crew so unless I tell you to do something else, you're under Bruce's control for a while. You too Cressler. Get with Floan and a Pumper team. If you need anything, I'll be right outside. I have extra bottles for you that I'll lay outside so don't go far if you need one."
*I take my hand off of my mic then look around at a PPD cruiser pulling up. I walk over to side Bravo of the house and see just bits of smoke coming out of the basement on that side too.*
'Hope this doesn't spread too much into the first floor.'

I get down on 1 knee and look up to check the ceiling, the fire has already ran the ceiling and over the North wall as well. *

'I'll help him.'
*I walk over to McEvoy.*
'I'll help em.'
*I help grab the cap for the discharge and take it off so they could drain the truck. I then move to the side as water is forced out of the tanker.*
'How you guys been?'
Good, busy day huh?
'Somewhat.'
Yeah, we'll go on another supply run after this and come back so it won't get too low.
'Alright thanks man.'
No problem.

"P11E to P11 command, we have a pool of water, do you need more pressure?"
((Could we maybe lay a sucker to the pool from the ladder and get two larger lines off of that?))

Also, everyone please pay attention, and report to your TO in BOLD every so often, it's hard to keep track of people if no one is reporting in. And lastly, I will pull everyone out of this structure and give it to the vollies if you guys can't get organized, like seriously, come on, I know you can do it, you've done it before, do it again)
