October 17, 2009-Tanker 738 and R.I.T. Goes To New Philadelphia

October 17, 2009- At 04:04 Tanker 738 was dispatched to 59 Water Street, New Philadelphia Borough, for a working structure fire (known as Moe’s Pub).  Moments after the tanker was dispatched the beeps came across again, this time for the Schuylkill Haven Fire Department  R.I.T.  Tanker 738 was on the road soon after dispatch, and Engine 733 and Squad 739 were right behind bringing along the RIT members.  Once on scene, the tanker began to shuttle water to the fire scene and the RIT team was staged on the outside of the building.  Luckily, the team was not utilized for RIT, but instead was used to assist with fire suppression and overhaul operations.  Units from Schuylkill Haven were back in the borough by 07:45.  **Station 4 Pics!P1010479P1010478P1010480P1010481P1010482P1010483P1010484P1010485P1010486P1010487P1010475P1010476P1010477
