[Scan-DC] Box 8-4

[Ed Tobias]

Assume all are aware that every engine was out of position when this box
hit.  The unit that wound up as first-due, and making the interior attack,
was engine 7-1.  The hazmat crew was in the Gaithersburg area for some
reason.  They needed a little help finding the address.

area. There is the one where the fire was in the Montgomery Village. I
belive this house actually faces lake whetsone - is that correct? So the
fire could be seen from Montgomery Village ave? At any rate the 2nd
Whetstone Drive is an Apartment complex that is close to the intersection of
Rt 355 and Odenhal - a bit of a distance from the actual call. Usually the
way we tell the difference when the call goes out is that one will be single
digits and list an apartment number and the other will be 4 digits and no
apartment number.

Police Channel 154.060 and they were talking about a piece of fire
appartatus that showed up to the wrong location and he was giving them
directions to where the actual fire was. They were hearing on their fire
radio that there was fire showing yet they were in a neighborhood by
themselves with no fire present. Very comical.
