[FlyingPhoAddict]

I love the Irving Fire Department... hate the police...

[WoWBossStratagies]

I love videos were people record on the scenes.

I hate how most are shaky as hell though.....

[BoxerTwoZero]

Honestly it pisses me off seeing people insult the guy for doing something he enjoys doing. It's pathetic how determined they are. Great video man, my dad was on the trucks 20 years so I've had plently of time around stuff like this, it's a rush! Keep em coming man

Was the fire in a house, condo or building?

[ColinFWheeler]

It was a house fire in the Los Colinas neighborhood of Irving, TX.

How badly was it damaged?

[ColinFWheeler]

I think it can be rebuilt.

Are there only battalion chief's in the Irving Fire Department?

[ColinFWheeler]

There are 2 BCs on duty at all times (BC 1 at Stn 2 and BC 2 at Stn 11). There is also 520, the EMS Supervisor, at Stn 3. There are no Deputy Chiefs on duty 24/7. The Chief of the Department (501) gets dispatched to fires at the 2nd alarm level. There is a unit 500, but I haven't figured out what that is (it may be the Mayor, but I don't know).

The Dallas FD has 2 Deputy chiefs on duty above the BCs. D1 is quartered at Stn 55; D2 is at Stn 1

The sideburns on the guy at the back of the command vehicle are awesome. (at the end)

Hey man how did you get on this call? were you riding on the units or sumthing.

[ColinFWheeler]

Hi. I was hanging out at home w/ my scanner on when the 1st alarm came in. Dispatch said "let's go now" before giving the assignment, which means their phone is ringing off the hook. Quickly went to a 2nd alarm once the 1st companies arrived. Is fairly close to where I live, so I decided to go check it out.

[JCalder20]

Ah cool video man, i have an okay video of Poulsbo's E71 and M71 getting dispatched to Taprock Bar and Grill check it out leave a comment or something, keep up the great work.

[yoyoimhome]

[ColinFWheeler]

HI.  Thanks a lot. I'm glad you liked it.
