On Thursday, December 5th, 2013, around 4:45 PM, companies from the 21st Battalion responded to a Still Alarm at 90th and Bell. The units on scene were Engines 121 and 129, Trucks 40 and 50 (spare rig), with Battalion 21 in command. Battalion 20 and Truck 59 were assigned as RIT. At some point, the squad and van were delayed. I arrived behind Truck 50.

Fire was on the second floor in the 1/2 corner. That’s the 20th (RIT) and 21st (IC) Battalions in front. D. Herndobler photo

Supposed to be second up, but they had the hydrant and a preconnect off. D. Herndobler photo
First truck. Truck 59 was a little further down the block and were leaving by the time I made it around to here. D. Herndobler photo
Should’ve been first up, might’ve had an issue. Don’t know. D. Herndobler photo

Not much to see. Anyone know the story why 129 got the leadout instead of 121?
It's always interesting to look back at these events and wonder about the decisions made on the spot. Sometimes, even small changes in response can make a big difference. These photos give a glimpse into the chaos and coordination that takes place during a fire call. It’s also fascinating to see how different units handled their roles. If anyone has more context or details about this incident, it would be great to hear them. Thanks for sharing, D. Herndobler.
