Mulch Fire at Building 10

The streak of working fires continues this morning with Engine 750 and ATV 750 taking in the "working" mulch fire behind Building 10. Crews arrived with "smoke showing" and found an area of mulch approximately two feet square "fully involved". The lineman from Engine 750 quickly deployed the high pressure attack line while others attempted to "contain" the fire using the "flappers".

I hope everyone can understand the humor in the post and realize that this small fire was nothing exciting for the crews, but here in Bethesda we will call this a continuation of our streak.
