Good First Arrival Video, What would you do different on this one ???

This video show on arrival, would make a good T&S class video. Watch the time ticker on how long it takes for the crew to get a line on the fire. Priorities could change if the time of day was different?, Looks as if everyone was out on arrival. Good old deep seated attic fire? Notice that they break the upper floor windows and no smoke shows?

On August 20, 2009, at 1:27pm, calls came pouring into the Harford County Fire Dispatch Center reporting a house on fire in the 600 block of Angel Drive, which is located in the Long Bar Harbor area of Abingdon, Harford County. The first arriving fire engine, which was from the Joppa-Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company, arrived at 1:36pm. They used their hose lines to begin extinguishing the fire. A hook and ladder truck from the Joppa-Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company, as well as other units from the Abingdon Volunteer Fire Company, Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company, Kingsville Volunteer Fire Company (Baltimore Co), and Aberdeen Proving Ground Fire Department also responded and assisted with extinguishment. There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is still under investigation.

A fire Thursday in Harford County, Maryland. The picture below and account of the fire are from Andrew Doyle:
