*** Back to Back Fires ***

Last night shortly after 2200 hours, engine 301 was dispatched to transfer to city station 2 while they worked a duplex fire on Swatara Street. The engine responded with 6 members and shortly after arriving to the transfer, engine 301 was requested to the scene along with engine 37-1. Engine 301 crew assisted with fire attack and overhaul.

This morning shortly after 0330 hrs, engine 301 was once again dispatched to transfer to station 2 while city units worked another fire on 15th street. While members were responding to the station for the transfer, command struck the 3rd alarm bringing the engine to the scene. Engine 301 crew assisted with extensive overhaul.
