This from Eric Haak:

Thought I would share a few images from a still and box alarm in the 16th Battalion on Sunday morning (12/3) at 5658 S. Sayre Avenue. Engine 32 (in the spare rig) pulled a box immediately upon landing on the scene. It was promptly struck out by the 16th Battalion less than 3 minutes later. There was some extension to the home which was attached to the brick garage.

Working fire in Chicago, 6-9-17

This from Drew Gresik:

The 18th Battalion battled a working fire in a red-X building at 3849 on Flournoy. Chicago Police helicopter ‘PH1’ called it in on the Zone and reported that there was a house on fire and it was really cooking. Engine 95 deck-gunned it on arrival as they had heavy fire showing from the 2, and then companies led out (2) 2.5” lines while performing an exterior attack. A third line was led out as Squad 1’s Snorkel was set up and flowing water in the vacant lot on Side D.
