How were they able to let this get away from them? 3:00 pm MBFKD; then fire breaks out on the 5th floor, then fire in the cockloft?
We had many H type MDs in the south Bronx with vertical voids. Fires on lower floors always sent a truck co. to the top floor to check for extension and see if it had gotten into the cockloft. What has changed, and why?? This would hardly ever go to a 5-5 on Watson aAe or Ave.St. John in the 70's."
"Hardly ever"... So what you're saying is that sometimes it would... Keep pounding your chest.

I normally don't post on here, prayers to the injured member ! I was a fireman in that company yrs ago. I also learned a long time ago never to Monday morning quarterback, you never know when you might be next. As far as "Senior" goes, I worked with you, respected you, but sadly, time to remove your tie and enjoy retirement brother!
