Tanker-22 was dispatched to a fully involved structure fire at 2829 Armstrong Valley Road. The Tanker responded with a crew of two and arrived on scene to find companies 19, 20, 21, 216, 26, and 29 working a house fire with fire blowing out of the windows and doors. Truck-20 was set up on side-2, being supplied by Engine-21. Engine-21, on side-1/2, was being supplied by Tanker-21. Engine-216 was on side-4/1, being supplied by Tanker-20. Engines 26, 19, 201, and 29-1 were staged and their manpower worked the scene. A tanker shuttle was begun using Tankers 29, 19, 23, and 22 dumping into Tanker-21's dump tank. Tanker-22 dropped one load, and was refilled at the fill site, located at Heim's garage in Fisherville, manned by Engine-29. Engine-22 was requested by Chief-21 to relocate to Station-21, and Perry County Engine-2 was relocated to Station-29. There was heavy fire involving the entire 2?-story house which was being remodeled at the time. A CAFS line from Engine-21 was deployed to the platform of Truck-20 and used along with additional handlines from Engine-216. Tanker-22 was then relocated to Station-21, arriving by way of Halifax and Millersburg since Route-225 was impassable because of apparatus at the fire scene. The Engine and Tanker were later released by Chief 21-2 and the company went available.
