First In

I welcome you to my blog site; I hope to show you the fire service in NLC in some interesting events. During the next few years, I will improve on the content and photos to keep you coming back for more. I take pride in my photography and try my best to be first in when possible. The majority of the photos will be from the Norwich companies & surrounding area departments, but sometimes I Buff out of state cities for a change of pace.

As of late I have missed or worked a lot of the incidents. I have a great support group of Photographers to help the site keep up with all the incidents. There are too many to list, So thanks for your support. Thanks for visiting and enjoy .RD Ladd

Hartford 3rd+ alarm 01-06-10

Hartford, Ct had their first multiply alarm fire of the year at 1624 hours. The fire was a 3rd alarm with special calls and was located at 50 Willard St in a 125' X 350' 4 story apartment building. This fire displaced over 140 occupants. The fast moving fire jump trench cut made on the roof as engine crews worked to knock down the blaze. After about a hour the crews were withdrawn and defensive operation commenced. The fire was placed under control in about 3hrs. Several mutual aid companies responded into the city for coverage.
