There were a total of 7 engines pumping at Saturday afternoon’s 2-11 church fire in Chicago. I thought I would send in images of each with the location they were working at.
Digging through more archives, I found some of my first digital shots of this 3-11 alarm at 638 N. Milwaukee on 6/14/2003. At 03:28 Engine 14 and Truck 19 were stilled out for a fire at Milwaukee and Grand. They found a 1 1/2 story warehouse with heavy smoke and fire venting and exposure to a 4-story brick, 150X100, mixed occupancy with a restaurant supply on the 1st floor and apartments above. Exposure #3 was a newly built row of townhouses. They would eventually use 3 TLs, 3 ladder pipes, 1 Snorkel, 6 multi-versals, and 10 hand lines to bring the fire under control at 06:04 hours.
