Built to Burn

Hoagie Pelley and Mike Studer on the master stream; me in the white coat. At the height of the fire, we were pouring over 4,000 gallons of water on the fire and it continue to grow. The building was built to burn, plus the hundred of gallons of oil on the floors over the years to keep the dust down. There were three, 2.5 gallon soda acid fire extinguishers in the building. The fire only went out when there was nothing left to burn.
