Units from Progress started the evening with a first due oven fire which was contained to the oven and then minutes later sent to a 37 box “in the area of” an intersection for smoke from a house. Units from 37 arrived and found a kitchen fire and made a quick knock on the fire with 1 hand line. The units from Progress assisted with searches, opening up for the engine, and ventilation before returning.
Is that at Scottsdale?
Just a normal evening spent on Union Deposit Rd in the 32-5 box at Crunch Fitness for the men riding the engine company.

Are Hartman’s short shorts over by the deadlift racks?
The Rescue-Engine handled an afternoon roll over on Progress Ave. The call was initially sent with reported entrapment but units arrived to find everyone out of the vehicles with minor injuries.
Before clearing the scene took a few minutes to discuss extrication plans if there would have still been someone trapped.
Speed had to be a factor.
The Truck Company took in an afternoon Fire Alarm in a High Rise in Swatara Twp which was upgraded to a stove fire on the 4th floor. The Engine Companies from Swatara Fire-Rescue arrived and confirmed the fire was out with a smoke condition inside. Truck 32 arrived as the 1st due truck and assisted with ventilation.
Video from the lounge as the call was dropped, the Truck Company was on the street in under a minute with an additional crew staffing the Engine in station. Excuse the walls, as the lounge is undergoing a renovation and uplift.

Crews from Progress and Rescue Fire Company #37 are picking up from a fire alarm in 37’a first due, meanwhile the Tower Chauffeur took the opportunity to set up and fly the bucket.
Good opportunity and also being proactive for the one time an afa is the real deal
A little fun for Tuesday evening training included dueling crosslays and bumper lines to make up push up the stairs to a simulated 2nd floor after masking up with gloves on. From starting at the pump panel to water flowing at the top of the stairs, it’s believed the fastest time was 55 seconds.
Who says training can’t included a little friendly fun competition to work on basic skills and being fast. When the public needs help, they expect us to be fast and proficient right?
Great to keep up and have fun on basic skills
Keep up the good work that's why I'm so proud of progress
Was a good opportunity to run with the young guns last night. Never to old to learn!
👍👍
The Truck and Engine Company just cleared a house fire in Paxtang Boro. Units were sent for a house on fire as a result of a domestic with the 911 center receiving multiple calls confirming a working fire. Truck 32 arrived as the 2nd due Truck and positioned to the rear with the crew laddering the building and performing searches as there was a report someone may still be inside. All searches were negatives. Engine 32-1 was sent as a replacement piece and arrived assuming 3rd due and laid a water supply to the rear. Engine 32-1’s crew assisted with fire attack and overhaul.
Just found out this morning from my wife dead a two year old pitbull with and your fire and perished I filled it he should also be punished for that animal cruelty idiot

Congratulations to the Susquehanna Township Class of 2021 as they graduated tonight and were sent off with a bang!
Love they thought to do this for the graduates, wish I would of had notice. Would have picked a spot that I could have enjoyed them.
Wish the school district had warned us. Woke up both my kids. We would have stayed up to watch, had we known. Congrats to the class of 2021, what a wild ride it’s been!
