John Tulipano was in Detroit recently and submitted images from the trip.

Just returned from a trip to the “D”!

We made 20 fires over a 3 day run… I’ve taken 1000 photos with my new camera, so I have much to sort thru … we had a very successful trip. I have included some shots from a 2nd Alarm at Fullerton and Lawton (see description below borrowed from Dennis Walus)

On Thursday October 24th 2013 at Aprox 0030 hours Detroit 5th Battalion companies responded to a reported vacant dwelling fire at Fullerton & Lawton. Upon on arrival a vacant two-family flat was found heavily involved extending to an occupied four-story apartment building. Defensive operations were started on the original fire building. Chief 5 then requested a 2nd Alarm. Water tower operations were set up on the (2) vacant two-family flats involved while companies performed an interior attack on the exposure apartment building with fire on the 3rd and 4th floors. An aggressive attack was preformed on the apartment building and defensive operations continued for aprox. 2 hours to bring the original buildings under control. Engines 40/39/35/44/42 Ladder 17/18 Squads 5/4 Tac 2 Chief 5/8 & 203 responded to this incident

Steve Redick recently spent some tim win Detroit documenting the work of the fire department:

Made a trip to Detroit this last week and we were able to see quite a few jobs..some big some small. I compiled a video of some of the more interesting ones and layered in some radio traffic. The end result is pretty much the story of a typical 4 days in that town. Keep in mind this kinda thing happens every day, year in and year out. These guys take a beating every day they come to work and really don’t get the help they deserve nor the pay they should be earning. As I say every time I go there, this members have my respect, and I sure hope things get better for them. It’s a tough way to feed your family.

Steve
