One of the wife's uncles had a fire a few years ago. The volunteer FD that responded just watched the place burn and only made sure it wasn't going to spread. FD policy. Had he ask for another volunteer FD that was the same distance they would have tried to put the fire out or save as much as they could. He looked into it after the total loss. Nothing he could do.

They were on site in 14 minutes. Pretty darn good for the FD being in a town of less than 100 people and guys dropping everything and some driving as much as 8 miles just to get to the fire hall.
