I don't know all of the details, but it was originally a call for smoke in the residence possible from the fireplace. It was then reported as a chimney fire. U/A of units they found smoke in a bedroom; a 2nd alarm was put out bringing in additional resources from East Fishkill and m/a from Beekman & Rombout.. may have been another m/a company in there too. I believe the end result was fire in the wall caused from the Chimney. Sorry that's all the details I have; maybe someone from East Fishkill will have more details later!

First dispatch was East Fishkill Station 1, 2 Sub-Station 2, 4 with 39-67 for smoke in the residence possible from the fire place. Second dispatch was possible chimney fire. Right after that was 2nd Alarm of Fire East Fishkill 39-33, -34, -56, -71; Village Of Fishkill FASTeam; Mobile Life; Beekman with an engine to go on stand by at East Fishkill Station 2 and Pawling with an engine to go on stand by at East Fishkill Sub-Station 2 for chimney fire with possible extension to the structure. Rombout on stand by at Station 1 I believe. I was not on the scene. That was the only dispatches I heard. Call went out at 1449 and was cleared by 1630. Unknown what was at the scene. I hope this helps.

Units o/s were 39-1, 39-2, 39-4, 39-11, 39-15, 39-56, 39-67, 39-71, 39-81, 39-97, 42-12, 34-1, 34-13, and multiple EF tankers for water shuttle.

Other engines were assigned to draft sites, including "39-21" (39-16 as acting 39-21), 39-14 relocated to EFFD HQ, Rombout relocated to EFFD St. 1, 39-17 I am not sure where they ended up (draft site I am assuming).

I brought my camera with me, but forgot to grab some photos when I had the chance!

Assistance for laddering the roof was rendered by Village of Fishkill with 42-12, since EF 39-46 is OOS for work being done on it.

Our Chief sent and email to us and said, GREAT JOB! We had a fire in a wood fireplace. The first crews got in there had stopped it from getting to the attic and it was a BIG house. So I hope this helps even more. To get a picture of the scene. Anyone want to draw one with these details??? LOL

No, what I said was a "wood fireplace chase". You could have gotten a picture, had you been there.

Yea, and if SOMEONE (nate) didn't show up late to the party, he may have gotten to do something!! LOL

39-17 responded driver alone, and got told to stand by at HQ, since there was additional manpower already at HQ along with 39-14 and crew.......

Click on "Bird's Eye View" for a good look at the house.

Since maps.google.com won't show the ACTUAL address, the bet info they could give me was the Latitude and Longitude of the house, so for those with the time and patience, here it is!

Does that look like a tanker in the driveway?

Yes, it does look like an oil tanker. Seems to me I have seen construction equipment in that private road for years though.
