I could not make the fire this morning in Sharon CT. Our tanker, and Engines from Amenia and Millerton assisted under mutual aide. I did find this video to share, hopefully some of the brothers from Amenia took some pictures.

I have no pictures, and no comments on this fire. I was there with the crew doing tanker shuttle.

Yes Joe that is what 69-2 had told me this afternoon.

Water shuttle to feed the truck, I would say it was burning for some time before anyone was notified.
