Outstanding operation by E 38 at the Dyre Ave incident. At this very early morning incident, they faced a heavy fire load exposing occupied dwellings, active IRT EL tracks and associated high voltage overhead cabling. In addition, flammables were leaking off of the truck and creating a river of fire running down the curb involving numerous parked cars.

E 38 was able to operate a strategically placed hand line and a foam line simultaneously before the arrival of another engine company. Quick and highly competent action saved this incident from becoming at catastrophe.
