C-Shift catches Miller Park Job

Every dog has his day, apparently, that day was last C-shift day for two of our St. 1 members. Just after 4pm, as dinner was getting started, Battalion 2 saw some work in an unoccupied structure. The run card included: E6, E1, E2, E4, T2, R1, M6, M3, B1, B2, EMS-2, and Chief 1. I'm pretty sure M6 marked first on scene with heavy smoke from the Alpha, Bravo and Delta sides. E4 who was just leaving the Food Lion added to the run due to their location and arrived just ahead of E6 and stretched the first line through the front door for an aggressive interior attack, FF Shealy at the nozzle (St. 1). The Rescue Co. took care of the primary, Miles in the lead, yelling something in spanish the entire time, typical. E1 arrived and grabbed the second line and stretched through the front door to assist E4 in extinguishment. Crews found a bedroom well off with extension into the hallway, heat and heavy smoke throughout. The fire was under control in 10 minutes. Due to medic class and a full vacation list, St. 1 personnel were spread out, but we all made it to the fire on about 4 different pieces of apparatus...except for Neil, because he was on Medic 4, and that's just funny. I was fortunate to be riding with 2 captains on Engine 1 again, Mike Thomas (my captain) and Chris Adams (A-shift EMS-2), two salty old dogs. Lets just say the Growler got us there in great time, he put that ole reserve American LaFrance in the wind and let her eat.
