This is the most resources ive seen used in James City in a LONG time.
I agree. They put 28 people on the scene with the initial alarm. After 30 minutes of non-stop firefighting, they needed a break, so they called the second to rotate personnel. Access was also an issue. The house was halfway down a dead-end street. It was strange hearing Newport News units running calls in the County. I haven't heard that in a long time.
