Does the first due Engine make the stretch for the 2 due Engine, then back them up on the line? Curious to know if that is the SOG for rowhouses in Philly?
@@rgc3900The first due engine tries to get in front of the building if possible for quicker deployment of a preconnected attack line, then the driver will charge the line and stretch back to a hydrant for supplemental water supply. This gives them 500 gallons for a quick knock down until a hydrant is obtained. If the street is too narrow, the driver will get as close as possible and try to get the hosebed facing the fire. Then they carry the bag(usually 3 or 4 lengths of 1& 3/4" attack line) and pull 3" hosline near the front of the dwelling and connect out front. The 2nd due engine does the same but also helps the first due engine establish a supplemental water supply either by helping them connect to a hydrant or they will give them water through their engine if they are already hooked up to a hydrant. 2nd due engine attack line is usually stretched to the rear of the dwelling but they may go to the front depending on the nature and conditions of the job or if ordered by the chief.
Jessie, fantastic footage. Shows Philly fire at it's best. Row homes are tough hombres
Like fighting fire in a brick oven......
Much thanks for your in the heat of the battle posts !
"You posta be runnin' wit da hose, not walkin' wit da hose!" 😆 🖕🏾 Put that on a shirt! 🤣
@MOPARGuy Well that's a brain-dead comment if I ever heard one.

The irony considering you are constantly criticizing actual firefighters...
Even though you've never been a firefighter...
And NEVER will 🤣
The bystander is hilarious 😂
