I have pictures of the job and will put them up later today. Great job by all members. A very tough job, fire spread quickly throughout four frames. The member who had fallen through the roof was accounted for and treated by EMS. 300 Jewett ave, 8 Row Frames.

I thought I heard a 10-75 at the same address, 40 Rector,  Friday night around 10PM. Hazmat was rolled too. Here is a blub from the newspaper:

Firefighters battle blaze on Staten Island

Firefighters are battling an all-hands blaze in the West Brighton section of Staten Island.

A fire apparently ignited by an acetylene tank broke out at 10:25 p.m. at 40 Rector St. and caused some damage to an attached home, fire officials said.

While the main body of fire was extinguished by 10:45 p.m., firefighters are keeping a hose at the ready as the acetylene tank continues to burn off.

No injuries have been reported.

Again, that was the Friday evening.

  I lived in that neighborhood for many years and I'm very familiar with that area. 40 Rector St. is much further north of the 5th Alarm Box 715 @Jewett & Post Ave. The 5th alarm fire was actually located much further south on Jewett near Forest Ave. There are two boxes that are much closer: Box 714 @ Jewett & Bache and 713 @Jewett & Forest. The initial 1st alarm response on box 715 or 714 is: E157/156/163/L80/TL79 & BC22. On Box 713 it would be E163/157/156/L83/80/BC22.

  On most 10-75 & All-Hands Engines 242, 243, and TL149 & L168, BC42 and other South Brooklyn units cross the Verrazano Bridge to respond or relocate.

The thirteen engines on first, second, and third alarms were Staten Island companies.  The 4-4 had three SI engines, one Brooklyn engine and Queens Engine 262 with the Incident Management Team Planning Vehicle.  The 5-5 got four Brooklyn engines.  Eleven SI ladders and one Brooklyn ladder were assigned.  Brooklyn relocated six engines and five ladders to SI houses.

Staten Island has 18 engines and 12 ladders, Brooklyn 61 and 39.  Volunteer companies are not assigned on multiple alarms.

Do you have a run down and how many rescues on it?

I do not have complete data, but can advise two rescue companies were assigned, R5 on the initial alarm and R2 after the 4-4.
