that was my girlfriend's apartment that burned down. Really awesome place; had a big, trippy mural on the wall of a peacock fighting a phoenix. The other residents there were all really cool girls. If there was anybody this shouldn't have happened to, it was them.

on a aireal truck u do not have to have a resperator because the aireal truck is eqiped wit a 6000 psi resporator, in this case they did not have to wear one because it was so far from the fire

MFD is one of the best Fire Dept's around! I am not saying this because I started in the Fire service with Morehead. but all them Firefighter know their stuff.

Non-stop training.

From all the 10 years I have put in so far, I still wish I was back with MFD!

Losing that building might have been the best thing to happen on Main St. just be another Parking lot I bet. Just glad No one was hurt and that all the people living their got out safely!....
