Here are a few images taken recently in Chicago. This was a vacant home in the 19th Battalion. There was fire in the basement, first floor, and attic. Most of the initial attack was done defensively. Eventually companies went interior and mopped up.

I took a short ride into the city and went to a working fire in the 20th Battalion at 1502 W 79th Street. Companies had a 3-sty ordinary, vacant building with a fire on the 2nd floor. Engines 129 and 101 lead out lines and Truck 50 & 41 members made the roof. I arrived right after the first-in company. The full gallery is on my site.
