The following is a Hypothetical scenario... If it co-insides, or matches any real events, this is not intentional.. All events are believed to be fictional.
The aim, is to state what you would do, as the officer of the first arriving appliance.. Eg Sitreps, request of other resources, taskings of your fire fighters.. ETC
Let the Scenario.........Begin
_____________
You are OIC of a 24P, enroute to a report of a Building Fire. 123 Fake Street, Madeup Town. You arrive to find a 3 story house, with heavy smoke issuing from the third floor windows. There are assest (Being 2 other houses) Closely built on the northern, and eastern sides. A bystander says she heard 2 peope in the house, 5 minutes prior to seeing smoke and calling 000.
You have a standard crew (Say 5, including you, makes 6). The 4 crew are B.A, the driver is not. Your next Appliance, being a 24, is 12 minutes away, with 4, 2 being B.A crew. The next brigade has sent its 24P and 24, each with 4 crew, each having 2 B.A. They are 15 minutes from arriving.
There are plenty of water sources in the street, how ever minimal pressure...
Unknown if other agencies have been responded. This is in a rural town, NO MFS support. There is a Tanker available, however needs to come from an ajoining group, and a tanker driver usually takes 30 minutes to be found , before they can make the 30 minute drive.
As your crew await your sitrep, and orders, a window blows out on the 3rd floor, and flames are now also visable.
