DFD has always known more than other departments about putting the wet stuff on the hot stuff in a hurry. Perfect example here. Kudos to you guys (and gals).
Hopefully there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, that 2nd floor of the original fire building was really cooking. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
A lot of fire, hopefully there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
The first engine on scene which should be the first piece of equipment on scene, should have had the Deck Gun flowing 30 seconds after the brakes were set. 0:40 is where they should have parked it. Instead, they took the DG out of play altogether. The DG could have protected both exposures and knocked down the fire. It took Minutes to start putting any water at all on the fire. 1:16 This is a great example of their Work Ethic. If they walked any slower, they would fall over. The adjacent house was lost due to that work ethic that obviously permeates through the entire department. This was utterly ridiculous, but it was an example of what you get in 95% of USA departments.

You’re a complete F’ing idiot. 1st engine NEVER dumps their monitor if there’s exposures. You’re probably some fat fucking buff or a volunteer toothless idiot who thinks they know how to do this job. You realize you’re criticizing the BEST Firemen in the world right? Why don’t you stop by any firehouse in Detroit and give your opinions instead of doing it on here, where you can hide hide behind your keyboard? By the way your Porsche is a piece of garbage bro. I know where you are in NY. I’ll be having a conversation with your volly brothers. Let em know they have a keyboard warrior Firefighting expert on hand
Couple of things to consider. 1. The deck gun or pump on the first due engine may not be operable. This has been a problem in the past within the DFD. Or the first in company was actually 2nd or third so they pulled past to give themselves an out to pack up and run to the next alarm. 2. You don’t know how many jobs these guys have been to that day. This could have been the 10th, 15th or 20th time they have stretched hose that day and they honestly may be exhausted. 3. All 3 of the houses could be vacant. If that’s the case, even if they killed themselves putting it out, as soon as they leave someone will come light it back up. All I’m saying is, DFD is a lot different than a lot of other departments. They do more with less than most. They also probably see more fire than most departments in the country on a consistent basis. Unless you have worked in Detroit, don’t keyboard cowboy their tactics.

Bravo DFD ...this is how to attack a fire that deck gun is a very useful tool most departments don't use enough!!!💯💪
It isn't about what tools you use; it is how you use them.
This is how you put a fire out
Thing is, that in some of these neighborhoods, someone could torch _everything_ on the block, and _STILL_ not touch anything occupied!

@JB91710: It's called the walk-in-the-park method of firefighting.

@Thegrassmantv There was a lot of speculation in that comment. Maybe, could have, maybe.
