    Just would like to be the first to commend DC-911 in monitoring the channels being utilized this evening at LaGrange's Structure Fire on Emans Road. I was extremely impressed tonight, while monitoring the frequencies myself, to hear Dutchess 911 contacting on scene Command attempting to confirm that an evacuation request from an interior crew was heard on the Fire Ground Channel. The evacuation tones were then transmitted along with the Urgent Message to evacuate and a P.A.R. was completed.
    All too often we read NIOSH reports that find that an attempt was made by a FF to request an evacuation and it was not heard by command or a MAYDAY was not heard or lost in the radio shuffle. It is because of heads up dispatchers like the on duty dispatch center today that we can minimize these unnecessary deaths.
    I would like to add that by no means is this a bash on any part of the operations this evening. It is because we work as a team that incidents safely are mitigated.
    Again Great Job!
