But 5-alarm- Tommy called for help from Kearny, Newark, E. Newark and Jersey City. Can't the HFD put out any fire by themselves? No biggee, just a routine job that a volunteer FD could handle with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest OEM Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Its better to overreact and get additional resources there, than to underestimate a fire in an urban city, where it could easily and quickly get out of control.... and burn your little town to the ground. But then again, thats why your not a manager... and we have Chiefs/Directors/Heads of Department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 The difference between the HFD and your volunteer company is, the building was still standing at the end. The fact that Kearny was called is no biggie, Harrison goes to Kearny plenty. Imagine that, neighboring communities cooperating where will it end. Better to have too many on hand, and not need them, than to wish 10 minutes in, that you had called and now its too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The initial report came to a Kearny Officer working a traffic post that the fire was IN Kearny..once units were dispatched, it was seen to be in Harrison by KPD Officers, who went on to assist, as did the KFD units already enroute.
