When my house burnt down in Ga. in 1990 the VFD went in the end of the house that was not burning and fought its way back toward the totally engulfed end. While the house was a loss they saved a lot of personal things inside for me.
Around here in La they will also go in. Our biggest problem here before we got city water was getting water. Those city firefighters think they are good. They should watch a VFD that has to get water from a mile away to fight a fire.
I can remember years ago when one guys house caught on fire in the middle of the night. The VFD had a list of ponds in the area where the owner had given them permission in advance to use the water. They went to this house that was on fire and found there was a pond at the next store neighbors house but it was not on the list. They woke the guy up at about 2am to ask if they could use the pond water. Neighbor told them "NO" Guys house burnt down because they could not get enough water on site fast enough. Never did figure out if it was a fight between neighbors or just the guy was more worried about saving his fishing pond.
