Saturday evening December 18th at 2127hrs the company was dispatched to the 1800 block of Coventry Lane in Chester Heights as part of a second alarm assignment to assist Chester Heights (71) on a working condominium fire. Engine 66-1 with a crew of 6 under the command of Safety Officer Lance Chandler (66-10) made the response followed a short time later by Engine 66-3 and 66-8.
Once Engine 66-1 arrived the crew was put to work on the B/C corner of the building with both interior and exterior extinguishment assignments. Once the bulk of the fire was knocked down Bethel crews remained on scene for approximately three hours assisting with extensive salvage and overhaul. Thank you to Eddystone Fire Co. (12) for covering while the company was committed. Photos are courtesy of Chief Engineer Reece Thomas.
