5 posts in this topic

Date: 09/30/14

Time: 0700hrs

Location: 214 Prospect St. c/s Gidney Ave.

District: City of Newburgh

Units: NFD C4, E1, E3, T1, West Point (Engine), Air Guard (FAST), Castle Point VAFD (2nd FAST), 36-13

Coldenham (Truck) & Good-Will (Engine) S/B @ Newburgh PSB

Description: Structure Fire

*Air-Guard was assigned as the FAST on the 2nd Alarm. However, while enroute, they came upon an accident on 17K. Winona Lake(?) was dispatched to the MVA, later shutting down the roadway. I'm unaware of injuries, etc at that incident.

With Air-Guard tied up at the MVA, the Castle Point VAFD (Dutchess Co) was dispatched and requested as the FAST into Newburgh.

Winona Lake was responding to the mva (originally dispatched as head-on with entrapment) when Air Guard was dispatched to City of Newburgh. The accident was on 17K @ the Air Guard entrance. They came up on it and remained on scene as Winona Lake arrived about 1 minute later. It was actually 3 vehicles, no head on, no entrapment. Two were transported BLS to St Lukes.

Air Guard FAST team is out of service. I don't think they were dispatched to Newburgh

Lt, funny you say that...I keep hearing that their FAST is OOS as well. Perhaps I was mistaken and Castle Point was the initial (and only) FAST?

Yes, I heard them noted OOS on the six o'clock news too. Castle Point was the FAST on this one
