Mutual Aid to Mardela for a working Chicken House/Storage Building Fire Friday, June 3, 2016

On Friday, June 3, 2016 @ 0845 Wicomico Central alerted Station's 9 (Mardela), 5 (Hebron), 12 (Westside) and 14 (Sharptown) for a reported Chicken House fire @ 7920 Baptist Church Rd. Crews arrived to find a large chicken house fully involved. Command was established and additional Tankers, Engines and Personel were requested to assist in extinguishment. Extinguishment efforts proved to be difficult due to a large variety of equipment, tools and vehicles being stored inside the structure. Command then requested a large excavator to assit with opening up the structure so crews could finish extinguishing the fire.

This incident was placed under control @ 1201 and terminated @ 1358

Station 5 units on scene: Engine/Tanker-5, Tanker-508, Ladder-5 and Traffic Control-5

Jerry Thistle If Mardela would have posted something about the fire we would have used their information. They didn't post anything and Hebron did.

Volunteer firemen always fighting over who gets "command". How about you just put out the fire.
