we were paged up in the morning on a barn fire with exposures, it was like 28 degrees out and when we got there im tellin ya this thing was flaming, u could see the flames for bout a mile away what little we knew was that it had a few propane tanks a camaro 2 4 wheelers and a bunch of other dangerous situations in that little barn......every one of the propane tanks blew up the car was full of gas it blew and teh 4 wheelers did as well.......u could hear the booms from miles away.........we were in a mess...........we used foam and about 9000 gallons of water before we got the flames put out, it was a cold morning jus let me tell ya, but like all of us, thats what we r in it for to help; protect our communtiy's............

it could have been alot worse we could have lost there home that was about maybe 10 foot from the barn or when teh front wall of the barn fell we could of lost one of our guys, but thankfully we all came out ok and we saved teh home, it just received a little smoke inside the home.........

that makes 4 house fires in our area in the last 2 weeks, we are staying busy the last little bit thats for sure......

Barn fires are always interesting, you never know what is inside.
