Yesterday afternoon, Glen Moore Fire Company was dispatched to assist East Brandywine Fire Company (Station 49) with a working structure fire.

First-arriving units encountered a barn with fire showing from the second floor and roof. Engine 48-2 arrived as the 4th due engine, with Engine 48-5 arriving shortly after.

Crews assisted with fire suppression and overhaul operations, operating on scene for approximately two hours before returning to service.

Strong work and coordination by all companies involved.
