this fire doesnt make sense to me..you have plenty of pipeman ALL over...was there an issue trying to find the seat of the fire? and why are so many people jus standingbaround and so concernd with the roof or laddering the bldg.?
@lewisbran exactly why I always say, "please don't critique a fire just from a picture or short video clip". The video is taken over more than a 2 hr period of time. Therefore, conditions change and so do tactics. The seat of the fire was orig in the basement with not very good access. The fire then extended thru the walls into numerous rooms on all floors of the bldg. The ops went from interior to exterior and back again. 3 alarms of manpower is why so many were standing around, manpower pool.
I know up where I am located in Berks County PA when the evacuation tones are sounded your to report to your respective apparatus and wait so they can get a head count, now every county I guess may be different.

Very good video. Interior attacks that end in evacuations are often the scariest fires. Glad to hear everyone was 10-4...eventually.
