Rehab 13 was requested by Oaklyn Fire at 2052 hrs during a heavy rain from tropical storm Andrea. A single family dwelling had a basement wall that was a collapse hazard.

Rehab 13 responded with 8 personnel and two units to handle the assignment. Once on scene it was determined that Rehab 13 would not be tied up due to the efforts of the Technical rescue companies from Cherry Hill and Camden fire departments. The Tech Rescue units were able to build shoring thereby avoiding the collapse of the wall which allowed the incident to terminate much more quickly than anticipated.

U1386 was recalled en route and Rehab 13 was on scene for under one hour. Rehab 13 was restored at 2230 hrs.

No photos of the scene were taken.

Rehab 13 was dispatched to the unit block of Stafford Ave, Laurel Springs overnight to assist with fire ground support at a vacant dwelling well involved in the early morning hours.

Our request time was 0113 hrs and performed service on scene from 0159 hrs until 0522 hrs when released by Laurel Springs command.

Rehab 13 responded with 7 personnel and 2 apparatus to provide fire ground support for the fire. Units were able to locate a cooling station across from the fire building . Rehab 13 was only able to get a s close as W. Atlantic Avenue due to the numerous apparatus and scene and that the fire building was located on a dead end street.

Rehab 13 provided hot and cold beverages. cooling towels, chairs, rest room, and snack foods as well as hot foods. Rehab 13 was in service from 0159 hrs until being released by command at 0522 hrs. Rehab 13 was stocked and re-supplied by 0620 hrs.

This was the first response in 43 days for the Rehab company.

At 1713 hrs the Task Force Alarm box was transmitted for Voorhees Township fire department for a dwelling fire in the Centennial Mills section. This area is a 55 and over development located of off Centennial Blvd., and the unit block of Stokes Rd. at Milford Circle is where the fire was located. Responding units could see smoke in the sky from the distance while en-route.

First arriving units had and end of row 2 story wood frame townhouse with heavy fire in the rear attached 2 car garage that was extending into the garage on the "D" side and into the rear of the dwelling. Several cylinders of propane and other gases were involved. A report of occupants trapped inside the dwelling was reported, but upon arrival the occupants had escaped but a family pet was still inside.

The all hands was struck upon arrival of 6600 and shortly there after the 2nd alarm was requested at 1727 hrs along with Rehab 13, Cascade 65, and PAU 2 for the investigation. Companies went in service with multiple hand-lines, roof venting, and primary search and located the dog that was still inside the dwelling.

At around 1245 hrs this morning the Task Force box was sounded for the dwelling fire located on Powell Avenue near E. Taunton Rd. First arriving fire units had a 1 1/2 story single family wood frame dwelling with heavy fire showing. CP 2200 requested the "all hands box" along with additional requests for BLS and and ALS unit for three occupants of the home that were suffering from smoke inhalation. Apparently, the occupants tried to extinguish the fire before escaping the dwelling.

Companies went in service with hand lines and two aerial master streams to gain control of the fire that was well advanced from time of arrival.

Rehab 13 was requested after the 40 minute progress report and toned out the Rehab at 0126 hrs.  Rehab 13 responded with three apparatus and 10 personnel and Rehab 13 was able to take a position right behind Ladder 21 which gave us a position across from the fire building.

Rehab 13 operated from 0155 until being released by CP22 at 0448 hrs. Rehab units returned and re-stocked for the next assignment.
