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

Detroit, MI. Manistque & E Warren 7-21-12

Shortly after mid-night the city sprang back to a Detroit Normal and within a few minutes the first of several Box Alarms rang out over the radio. (its always strange how the city goes from nothing then two or three heavily involved building come in within minutes of each other, makes you think...) A box for Manistique & East Warren was dispatched, This was a 1/4 of a mile from Eng 52s house. They arrived a gave stretching on the dwelling. A few minutes later SQ-6 arrived and updated it to a 3 story apartment building w/fire though-out. At that time we took the 10min ride to find fire though the roof of the dwelling. As we walked down the road we could hear a 2nd box for about a mile away. After a short time we headed to that location and found crews on scene with a dwelling already collapsed.(no photos from the 2nd fire).
