Engine Company Operations Class

On Saturday May 4th, members from the Sellersville Fire Department and the Silverdale Fire Company participated in the hands on portion of the Engine Company Operations Class instructed by Bob Hedden. Members from both companies learned the necessary functions of the Engine Company from water supply to fire suppression. It was a great class where everyone had fun while learning a thing or two.

Tactical Box 26-27

At 1327 hours, Engine 27-1 was dispatched to assist Perkasie on tactical box 26-27. Battalion 26 arrived on scene with smoke showing from the garage area. Engine 26’s crew made a quick knock of the fire while Engine 27-1’s crew was ordered to go the second floor and check for extension. With no extension being found, the Engine was availble within the hour.

Thoughts and Prayers to our Fallen Philly FD Brother

The Sellersville Fire Department sends out our thoughts and prayers to our Brothers and Sisters of the Philadelphia Fire Department. 

While battling a three alarm fire, Captain Michael Goodwin, of Ladder 27 succumbed to injuries following a building collapse. Firefighter Andrew Godlinski suffered severe burns in his attempts to rescue the fallen Captain. Our fond hopes of a speedy recovery for Firefighter Godlinski. 

While announcing the Department’s death, Philadelphia Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers recalled Captain Goodwin as a “firefighter’s firefighter, the kind of guy who looked out for his folks - a big guy.” May he Rest in Peace, and his family - two grown children, and wife - find peace in his memory.
