  1. The engie crew was behind the 8 ball as soon as they arrived, only having a 2 man engine crew. The home owners had opened the doors and windows to the house when they smelt smoke, glass was melted out of the doors giving the reason they where not shut, Venting wasnt the number one priority because there was not enough people for the task, 250 ft cross lays are what is on the truck and only 150ft was needed, powerlines where down to the A/D side of the house (that was the popping) this is why kinks where chased for so long because of the tight area for 250ft of 1 3/4, smooth bore was chosen because thats what the officer and nozzleman perfered, nozzle was not changed in the door way as you can clearly see in the video it was around 3 feet out side before the hose was even charged and as the officer was chasing kinks, and the Leather helmet comment really what is this pre school.. a fashion show.. every one has personal preference, The department did the best they could with what they had. betting none of you where there so please dont bash it, there may be many things wrong but low volunteer levels are hurting every department and this is a prime example, no need for the monday morning quarterbacks.
