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



As of July 2017, my site has had 319000 hits thanks for viewing. If you keep coming I will keep posting. First time visitors for older post click on the month links right side.



Remember: I'm not able to make every major event, so if you get some photos or video and would like to share them, please contact me @ laddr68@yahoo.com

Hartford 3rd alarm 07-09-10

At 0445 hours the Hartford Fire Department responded to 47 Evergreen Ave. for alarms activated in the building and smoke on floor #3. On arrival of Ladder 5 they reported nothing showing and the building being evacuated. The building was a 3 brick 75' x 100' U shaped. When they made the 3rd floor they had smoke and high heat. Upon further investigation they found a basement fire with extension into the walls. A 3rd alarm with special calls was required to extingush this fire. Mutual aid from East Hartford, West Hartford, Manchester Fire Rescue EMS, New Britain and Uconn (Farmington) covered the Hartford stations.
