Just after noon today, E823 was dispatched to a report of "multiple boats on fire" in the vicinity of Grant and Jefferson Streets in Shell Point. A large amount of smoke was visible from Parris Island Gateway during the response.
Burton Fire District crews spent the last few weeks training on Parris Island with Parris island Fire/Rescue on their new Flashover Simulator. This simulator allows firefighters in a controlled environment to experience and feel conditions leading up to a potential flashover.
Shift 2 crews were dispatched to a possible structure fire in Lakeview MHP last night. E825 arrived on scene and reported a working fire underneath a doublewide mobile home.
