This morning around 0100 hours, Ladder 65 was dispatched on the 2nd alarm assignment to assist Chester City. While units from the city were still responding, Fireboard advised that there were possibly 7 people trapped inside. Battalion 82 arrived on scene with a 2 story “piggy backed” twin with fire showing. Ladder 65 arrived and split crews, one crew went to the roof to ventilate and another crew assisted with fire attack in the charlie exposure. Searches proved negative and all occupants were accounted for. The Ladder remained on scene for about 3 hours assisting with overhaul. Pictures courtesy of the CFD Facebook page
And this is why the City of Chester needs to hire more firefighters and open back up another station. Keep relying on the volunteers and tax payers equipment to handle the city. The State of PA needs to take over the city.

Thank you to our brave firefighters.
Last night for drill, 25 members traveled down to the county training center for our annual training burn. Our focus this year was on basement fires and extending hand lines or a leader lines to reach the seat of the fire. We were able to do 7 burns total. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Please stay safe this weekend! Thank you to all who have paid the ultimate sacrifice fighting for our Country!!
Amen! Not just our military but our first responders also! Thank you all!! Stay safe please!
Ladder 65 operated for just over an hour on this 2 Alarm commercial fire in Chester City yesterday. Crews assisted with overhaul and checking for any extension.The east side companies were dispatched to 800 Welsh Street for the alarm system just before 7pm. As Engine 82 was arriving Captain Hand called for the box to be filled as he reported heavy smoke showing. Ladder 82s crews handled gaining entry to the heavily fortified church (former Boyd Theater) while the engine companies 81 and 82 stretched a 300’ and 200’ hose lines. Battalion 82 assumed the command and requested the 2nd Alarm assignment after going all hands. The “city call backs” responded with Squrt 81, Engine 84, Battalion 82c and his Aide. The fire was contained to the second floor and is being investigated by the City Of Chester Police Department.
Over the past few weeks, we have had the opportunity to train on and learn about Septa rail cars. The first two classes were classroom and some hands on time with the cars. The last portion of the training put everything together and some practical evolutions were then done with everything we went over. Stations 13, 14, and 51 also participated in the training with us.

BEAUTIFUL: A Florida dispatcher sings a version of Hallelujah with the words written to honor law enforcement at a touching ceremony in Bradenton to honor those killed in the line of duty. ❤️ Thank you, officers, for your service and your sacrifice. STORY: bit.ly/2IOKaqj
This week is National Police week. As the services and ceremonies end in Washington DC please keep all of our brothers and sisters in law enforcement in your thoughts and prayers.
Just before 1900 hours, township companies were dispatched to the Summit School on Plush Mill Rd for a vehicle fire. Engine 65 with 5 was quickly on the road and arrived on scene to find fire in the engine compartment. The crew from the engine placed the bumper line in service and the fire was quickly placed under control. Engine 65-2 also made the response.
