Once again and almost 6 months to the day, we had a fire on my medic shift day and once again we knocked it down quick. It wasn't a big fire though, but I am thinking the car is totalled. Two of my crew members were attempting to open the hood by forcing it with no luck, while I manned the hoseline (this was after we knocked it down) so they peeled a corner up and I hit just in case of some extension into the engine compartment. I then handed the hose over and forced open the drivers door, where the fire was so we could assess any starting point and to make sure the fire was completely out. We were done in about an hour or so with all gear reloaded and reports done as well. I thought it was funny that it happened almost 6 months from the last fire we had on the day of my Medic shift. Just some random rambling about it is all.
