This
page and the other pages in this series are the successors to the series
of web-page about the Camden Fire Department that began with the page
Camden
Fire Department: The Fires of the Summer of 2011. On this and other
pages in the series you will find pictures and information regarding
different events and aspects of the fire service in Camden, New Jersey. I
had stopped into Liberty Station and was talking to Chief Phelps when
the tones sounded… an auto accident on Route 676 south of Mickle
Boulevard. This turned out to be a one car accident with no injuries,
fortunately for all concerned. There are a few interesting shots of
police, fire, and EMS doing all that is necessary in cases like this…
and there is a lot… directing traffic and keeping first responders
safe, taking care of the injured, cleaning up debris that could become
hazardous to other drivers. Upon
returning to Liberty Station with Chief Phelps, we saw that with Engine
Company 8 being reactivated, a few of the fellows decided to have a
little fun with some caution tape. In a job where one is dealing with
potentially life and death situations on a daily basis, a little levity
is a good thing. As
with
the web page covering other Camden Fire Department events, if you can
identify anyone that I've missed, please e-mail me. (I'm
terrible
at at names and faces). Phil
