Good first on scene video

Put yourself in the seat of the first arriving engine, what would you do. What are the priorities? Good tactics and strategy learning tool.

 

On February 18, 2010 around 12pm Central dispatched the Oradell Fire Department (bergen county) to 332 Demarest rd for a reported fire in the 2nd floor bathroom. As members were enroute to the fire, PD had already confirmed a working fire. Oradell chief Kahill (2-0) requested a 2nd alarm upon his arrival which filled out a triboro response bringing in River Edge and New Milford fire departments along with a fast truck from Paramus.
Despite slight extension to the attic, crews made a quick aggressive attack and knocked the fire down fast.
