This week we look at a basement fire in an old stone farmhouse with a victim. Take a look and see what you think.

1.) Because of the age of the structure, does that enhance fire spread to the victim, or buy the victim some time? Why?

2.) With a bare minimum crew of four personnel arriving on the first engine, what actions would you take first?

3.) Does the position of the victim and the fire give you any challenges as it relates to laddering the building?

4.) Based on your experience what are the contents of this area?

5.) List five considerations for operating with fire below you.
