Patrick Dooley said… - Thanks. I got there with ladder 3 and engine 5 and they had the fire out. From the large column of smoke I could see in EH on my way in to not even steam when I got there. Got some good pictures of the members that where there.

Thanks for joining Common Sense Firefighting (CSF) It's about decsion making on the fire ground. You're in Hartford, I was just at the ROck in FDNY teching for the IAFF. Some of the guys in the class said Conn wasn;t too far. It's great that you're the coordinator of the fire academy . I bet it's challenging!
