2018 Class B Awards

On March 20, 2018 during a working fire on the 4th floor with a trapped civilian on the balcony, members of T3 forced open the apartment door and made entry into the fire apartment without a hose line to search for the victim. Under severe conditions, the members of T3 became trapped on the balcony with the victim. D2 ordered T2 to position the aerial on the Polk St side, extending the ladder to the 4th floor balcony. Lt. Rosser and FF Edelman walked the victim down the aerial to medical treatment. The members of T3 then climbed the aerial back into the fire room to conduct a primary and secondary search of the apartment.
