    The Herald Gazette: Five-alarm fire at Rockland Industrial Park burns building

    I almost met my maker today. My team did an interior attack and almost got burned alive when the wooden lobster traps above us flashed over. Not to mention the 20lb propane tank that we found out was next to us the entire time we were in there. Dangerous job but you gotta love it.

    Thanks man. It's an amazing job when everything goes right which is usually 95% of the time. Today was just one of those days where it almost went terribly wrong.

    Everyday life is a little sweeter after a good scare. You and your whole crew made it out, good job. Hopefully there was something to learn from it.

    Thanks all, we definitely learned something. It just didn't feel right in there. I mean it gets hot but not to the point where you can feel as much heat as we did. We had angels watching over us for sure.

    i know this is an old thread, but im bumping it anyway. I have to agree, the job is crazy, but there is suuuch an adrenaline rush when the alarm goes off. I love nothing more than the race to get my gear on and get on scene. Glad your and your guys are ok!
    i knew this guy wasn't b/sing.
