Around 0830 on 7/29/18, I received a page that Hope Valley, RI was working an outside fire with extension to a building. I figured it was small brush and nothing more. Since it's about 40 miles from the house, I didn't think it would be worth the ride. As the morning went on, more and more tankers were being special called and I finally decided to take it in at about 1130.
For a city boy like me, tanker shuttles, especially of this magnitude, are foreign to me.
The fire was in the Meadowbrook-Waldorf School, a large 1 and 2 story wood frame building approximately 400 X 100. I arrived aboout 4 hours into the job. Companies had been pulled out early due to collapse conditions inside.
