There were several good stories that piled up over the weekend and are worth visiting this morning:
* “Faster than a speeding newsroom!” STATter911 covered a 3-alarm apartment fire leading with a video of the blaze that was posted less than an hour after the fire started. The fire was in Prince George’s County and the FF’s made several good ladder rescues at the incident. Start by going HERE to read about it and see the video. While you’re there, his Quick Takes this morning is loaded with gems like the update on the infamous Gregson Street Guillotine in Durham. Catch those stories HERE.
* Speaking of Durham, FireNews.net caught a church fire there along with some other action HERE.
* The Fire Critic is starting a list of “Top Qualities of a Great Fire Officer.” Some things are so obvious that you never see them. Check out his list and then toss in your own suggestions for it HERE.
* Life Under the Lights is a great EMS blog and he posted a story on how the “save” rate can be increased to nearly 50% and has been shown to be successful HERE.
