January
31, 2004 - At 2002 hrs, Prince William County Fire
Communications dispatched a box assignment for an apartment
building fire at 8086 Lyon Circle, in the
Stonewall Jackson area of the County. Wagon 511 arrived
on scene and reported a three story, garden style apartment building,
with heavy fire on the third floor and through the roof.
Engine 501, who was second due on the box, arrived
quickly and went straight to work. Chief 511 transmitted
a second alarm that brought Tower 501 along with several
other County units. At a point early in the
operation, all personnel were called
out of the structure in order for Truck 511 to utilize
its ladder pipe. Once the Truck had darkened down
most of the fire, crews were sent right back in to
extinguish the rest of it.
Engine 501 operated multiple hose lines on the fire
floor while the Tower handled several different tasks. Company 501 units cleared around 2245.
