Multiple Attack Lines • Stockton Fire
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лют 2017
- On January 27, 2017, Stockton Firefighters responded to a working structure fire in the 1100 block of East Washington. The single-story Victorian home with full basement is indicative of the neighborhood. Though boarded up, squatters frequent these houses and basements. Even though it appears 'fully involved,' crews committed to extinguish the first floor fire in order to save possible life in the basement.
Fire crews on scene pulled multiple hoselines in order to attack the fire through the front door. An unconventional remodeled layout, and heavy fire conditions hindered the first-in hoselines ability to immediately extinguish the front rooms of the house. A change in strategy and tactics required 2 1/2 inch hoselines deployed and flowed from the exterior. Basic strategy and tactics indicates that opposing hoselines should not be flowed toward each other. (ie:) The line in the back could not flow into the house until the firefighters in the front had backed out. Crews carefully coordinated the attack.
Firefighters were able to safely manage the fire. No victims were found in the structure, and crews worked carefully to avoid injury. The Stockton Fire Department consists of 12 Engines, 3 Trucks, 2 Battalion Chiefs, and 1 Operator. These 51 firefighters protect more than 300,000 people, and respond to more than 42,000 calls a year- including an average of one working structure fire a day. We are proud to serve and protect the citizens and City of Stockton, California.

Around 1953 I was going home for lunch and seen an old wooden tower on fire and SFD was on its way. I was always interested in the fire department. I was 16 and helped with pulling hoses and other things till a ladder slide off of a building next to the fire. Yes I got hurt right along with 2 other firemen. I was sent a letter from then Fire Chief Lyle Stevens thanking me for the help. I became a volunteer firemen in Nevada County, Rough and Ready VFD and made chief in 4 years and continued for 22 more years. That Stockton incident has always been with me. Enjoyed your filming of the Jan. 27, 2017 fire.
These bros never disappoint. These guys are the real deal
Text book perfect response, Stockton is a “gold standard” fire department. Comms, command and team work are outstanding. 👌👌👌
Big shout out to the dispatchers! I don’t know how they keep all that stuff organized! Great job!
I tell you what...SFD never ceases to impress. Very nice job!
As someone who knows absolutely nothing about fighting fire , I appreciate the subtitles .. made it easy to understand what's going on ! Great video !!
Steady organized progress made by guys who know what they are about! Thanks for the video and the sub notes which explained exactly what was going on. Stay safe guys. Regards from Scotland
Murray, your comments were right on the mark. These guys made a helluva stop on a well advanced fire.
Best regards from Texas, retired. 29 years service.
I am always so impressed with the professionalism of the Stockton FD!! Your videos are amazing. Stay safe!
Love the explanations of the radio traffic, it makes it less confusing for us lay people! Hello from Wales!
Great video, loved the running subtitles explaining what's going on, to all firefighters good work and stay safe
Dazza from Australia

If 82,000 people have watched this video so far, how come only 600 have taken a second to like it and show their appreciation for a dangerous job well done?
Great videos as always. Thank you and keep it up!!
Another great job, Stockton 👍
Another excellent response from Stockton FD. 👌👍👏👏👏👏
Non-firefighter though I'm beginning to understand the science behind firefighting and tactics. Awesome videos.
Well, you can certainly learn a lot.
An abandoned building with a basement and no tenable space for victims upon arrival, an offensive fire fight seems to be outside of a solid risk management profile. They put it out, their bravery is unquestioned. I’m glad we aren’t talking about this one on a NIOSH LODD report. Can vs. should are two separate actions. We can do lots of brave things as firefighters, but should we needs to be challenged regularly, without emotion, without ego. Cheers, glad everyone made it out.
Oh Jesus, shut the fuck up.
Wth...always someone with apparent and obvious limited knowledge wanting to be negative. Take it elsewhere because you won't find anywhere for it with the SFD!
@@CoTreyLoZ I am a retired Stockton Fireman along with my brother. My grandfather, my Dad and my youngest son are or were firemen. Sometimes there is to much talk, just get in there and put it out.
What Mr.Doobysm said was certainly very valid. Nothing inside of that house was alive, so why such an aggressive interior push? Could have gotten the same results without putting anyone's life at risk. I have nothing but the utmost respect for this department after watching their videos, but this one struck me as a bit reckless.
agreed
Jeez 51 firemen taking care of 300000 people ? every everybody in town should go by a fire house every Christmas and make sure all these guys get a gift , i read that this city was having it hard but i hope they find a way to take care of these fire fighters 👍👍👍
Radical approach. A heavy appliance initial attack.
Good video SFH. I was interested when you mention "balloon" type construction.. We have a lot of that in our area. Do you know what the age of the structure?
Great job
Guys are amazing did a great job
I just hope some of the know it all commenters on other videos WATCH THIS and LEARN how it’s supposed to be done and STFU. This is a perfect example of executing Tactics and Strategy.
A lot of armchair fire chiefs
@@Nino_J a lot? More like too many. Smh 🤦♂️
Your are kidding right?
So I’ve been watching fire videos on utube must say this has been the most impressive so far...Oh there was that one with the huge tanker😂🤣
Good job
Physical address of this fire is
1123 Washington St.
Stockton, Ca
The very very best.
They knocked that fire down fast!!!!
Certainly different tactics depending on your part of the country.
Oh my gosh that's horrific that fire and those poor firemen waiting for their water as long as they had to too! And of course this is in Stockton area which has been known for bad apple stuff going on too. 😢😪🙏
nice
Way to rock and roll Stockton
What does flake the line mean for one that does not know terms. Thanks.
It means to spread it out on the ground so it doesn't kink. U.S. firefighters use flat rubber lined canvas style hose so they can carry more hose. This is folded into various compartments or "beds". Once it is pulled out, the folds tend to remain and that prevents the water from flowing efficiently.
What is the difference between their “company” and just an engine or truck?
Dexter a company would be the apparatus that shares a fire house. Rather than just single apparatus
Daniel Stamper oh gotcha. Instead of saying Engine 1 truck 1 they just say company 1
Dexter. Correct
What is an "operator"?
Operator is just PIO (Public Information Oficer), the guy that record the whole thing with camera.
What is the difference between a "company" and "engine"?
bunker108 When Dispatch says Company it means that the engine and the truck are both going. For example she says company 2 and company 3, meaning engine 2 and truck 2, engine 3 and truck 3. She says company so it's saves her some air time in stead of saying Engine 2, Truck 2, Engine 3, Truck 3 since they are housed in the same station. Company just means both the Engine and Truck are going.
Adam Geisick well that makes sense and I feel stupid now. Our dispatch starts with first due pumpers, then ladders, rescues, squads, bc's etc. But dispatching "companies" is definitely something to consider.
i had to do the same, it was such a mouthful. not to mention when command builds the box lol
@@bunker108 You shouldn't feel stupid. The only stupid questions are the ones not asked. I'm sure I'll take flak for that but it's all good...it's true.
Ok, what is an Operator?
Iamnota Mushroom an “operator”. (Engineer) is the firefighter responsible for driving the truck or engine and operating its pumps, locating and attaching to a water supply, ETC.
@@danielstamper8729 Nope xD Operator is just PIO (Public Information Oficer), the guy that record the whole thing with camera.
" A Chief's Operator (aide) is also on duty at all times to assist the Battalion Chiefs. The Chief's Operator is responsible for the Mobile Command Unit and responds to all structure fires, hazardous material incidents, or large-scale emergency medical service (EMS) incidents. The Chief's Operator also ensures that the daily staffing requirements are met."

It said a probationary firefighter flaked a second time. Did he back out of the structure in panic?
They backed out the front door after they changed tactics and attacked it from the rear. It is explained in the video.
The probationary 'flaked the hose for the second line.' As in second hoseline. 'Flake' is a term associated with rope, but can also be used for hoselines. Flake: 'lay (a rope) in loose coils in order to prevent it from tangling.'
@@StocktonFireHistory What was dispatch referring to when she said "fills"?
@@CoTreyLoZ : Call up are made to "fill" the Stations left empty by this fire.
ok real quick question why can't hose lines be facing each other. for example. the back of the house crew can't spray water until the front backs out why is that.
ducky2323 because along with the water the hose push out they push hot air and fire. One hose would be pushing heat and fire at the other crews. It also makes it difficult to not disturb the thermal layering within the structure. It effects air flow. It does a lot of things that make it difficult to guess what the fire will do in the next min. Fire behaviour and understanding it helps prevent firefighter deaths.
Richard clarke thank you for that in site. I just learned somthing that I never even thought about so thank you.
what and who is an "Operator"?
@@lindanwfirefighter4973 Can't agree with you! It's a myth most peapole belive... To be honest no one wants to be sprayed with water under high pressure in face, especially inside burning house.
@@BDCSam Operator is just PIO (Public Information Oficer), the guy that record the whole thing with camera.
We had a fire here in CalPark couple years ago. 12 trucks showed up but the hydrants were froze.had to wait for a water tanker truck, by then most of the building was gone
Wow
No tym razem brawo
Not sure why you would not pull a 2 1/2 right at the get go with that much fire showing..
i watch a lot of firefighters videos these Stockton along with Detroit's seem to be some if not the best no fear pro's inthe contry.Detroit will let some of the old abandoned one's burn by orders but when they want to put it out they in the top four or five in the land
What is the Detroit FD youtube? Thanks!
Dude...you really need to stop baseing your fire hero worshiping on you tube videos. Lots of depts are as professional as these guys.They are good but standard.Are you a buff?
@@stevenkelly9731 Really? Ease up. Good LORD you can't even give praise these days without someone bitching about it. If you're mad or having a bad day just keep it to yourself...for everyone's sake.
Cory Monteith. Im just calling it like i see it these guys are some of the best
God is good 👍
