Just a question... Is Wilton EMS all volunteer or do they have paid staff during the day?

On a very hot and Humid day in July, Firefighters from Wilton, New Canaan, Norwalk, Georgetown, Ridgefield, Westport, and Weston battled this house fire on Drum Hill Rd. in Wilton, CT. A lot of Dept. were called in due to the lack of hydrants in the area and the hot weather. No injuries were reported.

Well said Izzy!

From what I was told, the first line was through the front door and was advanced into the attic through the attic stair case. Wilton's first due Engine made a good push into the attic, but were pulled out due to the roof being unstable.

Thats Weston's Tanker. There was a total of 5 tankers-Ridgefield, Georgetown, Weston, New Canaan, and Wilton. I wish I could have gotten more pics, but I was operating our tanker and was only able to snap a few from a distance.

There has been numerous threads about Kentland 33 in Prince George County, Maryland. Some have been good and some not so good... I found this the other day and figured I would share this series of videos with everyone... 24 hours with Kentland. The videos give a great perspective on what they are all about and what really goes on down there. I found these videos on, The Battalion, Webisodes. There are 6 small videos. http://www.thebattalion.tv/webisodes/kfc

New Channel 8 reported that he did get his gear back. It was found in his car.

CNN is reporting that NOFD is battling a 4 alarm fire right now. I think they said in the downtown area somewhere. Has to be pretty tough to battle any fire in a storm like this. Hope everyone stays safe! Also a few levees are starting to be topped... Industrial levee and upper 9th levee. Hope they hold.

Anybody have any info on this fire? Early Saturday morning...?

2nd best regulation went to New Canaan. I thought Turn Of River got best Engine overall... ?
