The family pet, whether it is a dog or a cat, is just as much a part of the family as the rest of you are. The Rochester Hills Fire Department could not agree more with that statement. That is why they recently held a fundraiser to aquire two new oxygen masks for animals. When Nancy Butty, The Fire Public Education Specialist for the Rochester Hills Fire Department, received a phone call from Melissa Jones, the Marketing Coordinator for Buffalo Wild Wings in Rochester Hills, they immediately came up with the idea of having a fundraiser for this cause. Pet Supplies Plus of Rochester Hills and the Leader Dogs For The Blind were eager to get involved as well. The Fundraiser was held on Saturday October 9th at the Rochester Hills Buffalo Wild Wings location. The Fire Department had their trucks and a token Dalmatian there for photo opportunities with the kids and parents alike. The photos were a suggested $2 donation which raised enough for the first pet oxygen mask all by itself. The Rochester Leader Dogs For The Blind had several families attend with their "Leader Dog In Training" puppies to entertain children and make them smile as well. Buffalo Wild Wings offered 20% of the participants' bills back as a donation to the cause, and Pet Supplies Plus offered a percentage of their sales to the cause as well. The community responded in great fashion. Not only were there enough funds raised to cover the cost of two oxygen masks, but also there was a surplus of moneythat was ...

arlingtoncardinal.com Notice the Fire Engine Air Horn blasts at just after 0:49 ... the signal for all firefighters to evacuate the building. NOW! It's a little hard to hear because I am closer to a second fire engine running that was not sounding its air horn. At about 5:15 and later Fireground command is communicating with an interior attack crew (can't see them in the video). An exterior line attack crew comes to the back and they are told not hit the fire in the ceiling because there is a crew inside. If the hose is turned on that ceiling fire while the crew is inside those firefighters can be burned by the water that turns to steam as it hits the fire. They can also be hit by falling burning debris from the force of the water pressure. As soon as the interior attack crew exits, the firefighter in the backyard hits the ceiling fire and knocks it down.
