On Wednesday September 12 2007 – At 0907 hours Wyckoffs Bravest were dispatched for a mutual aid engine response to the Borough of Hawthorne. Hawthorne intially was dispatched for a smoke condition but encountered a fully involved basement fire. Engine 231 OIC B. Baker responded with a full crew for stand-by at Rescue 5 but upon arrival Eng231 was immediately requested to the scene on Highview Terrace. Once on scene 231s crew was assigned as the FAST TEAM and staged in the front of the structure. Due to the heavy volume of fire 231s crew was called in to extinguish some hot spots and assist with extensive overhaul. Engine 231 was released an hour later by Hawthorne command. Congrats to the initial Hawthorne crews you made a great stop.-146
